>>917281That sucks. Mine does make a little hum but nothing where there is any resistance or issues. And obviously it isn't wearing out since I use that reel a lot and still no problems.
I still want to grab another one of those Okumas some day. Might just get a 35 or if they go on sale again, grab like a 10, another 25, and a 35 because I like them so much. And that 25 is the perfect size for 10lb-15lb braid and going for anything from panfish to larger bass. The reels are just butter smooth and they look good as well. I definitely prefer that to the Sienna.
