Anyone used one and have you had any problems or heard of any? Have you used their CS? They are on Ebay for $99 and Okuma has a $30 mail in rebate, so it looks like a pretty good deal.

Nope to both questions.  However, I think Okuma makes some pretty decent gear for the price.  Not being a top name brand (like Daiwa, Shimano, Dobyns, etc.) gets them overlooked quite often.  TT did a review of the Helios 7' M casting rod.  They gave it a "Great" rating.  Been Jonesing for one every since, but want the best possible price.  I'm a bit frugal.    People that buy one must really like them because I haven't ever seen a used one for sale on the sites I check.

Thanks. I am also looking at the Penn Spinfisher V. Anyone used these?
