Okuma Introduces Pulse Wave Spinning Combo Series for Inshore and Freshwater Applications

Ontario, Calif.  Okuma Fishing Tackle introduces the new Pulse Wave Spinning Combos, a lineup of purpose-built systems designed to deliver lightweight performance, balanced feel, and clean, coordinated styling right out of the package. Each combo pairs a responsive rod with a perfectly matched reel, creating a setup that's ready to fish from the first cast.

The Pulse Wave Combo series combines two standout Okuma products: the Pulse Wave rod series, which quickly gained popularity for its lightweight performance and modern styling, and the proven Avenger spinning reel platform trusted by anglers across a wide range of fisheries. Together, they create balanced, ready-to-fish setups with coordinated styling and dependable performance on the water. Both the Pulse Wave Inshore and Multi-Purpose Spinning Combos are available in Pink and Seafoam color options, giving anglers a clean, modern look that stands out both on the water and at the dock.

The Pulse Wave Inshore Spinning Combos were specifically developed for anglers fishing in inshore conditions. Featuring lightweight and responsive 24-ton 1-piece carbon rod blanks, premium cork grips, Fuji DPS-17 reel seats, and SeaGuide deep-pressed guide frames with Zirconium inserts, the Inshore series is built for dependable saltwater performance.

The Pulse Wave Multi-Purpose Spinning Combos are designed for a wide range of freshwater applications. Built with the same lightweight 24-ton carbon 2-piece construction, the series features comfortable EVA grips, ergonomic graphite reel seats, and stainless-steel guides with Zirconium inserts for reliable braided line performance.

Both series feature a matching Avenger Spinning Reel with Flite Drive technology for increased gear stability and smoothness, oversized HDG+ High-Density Gearing, and Okuma's Gear Stabilizing System (GSS) with a ball-bearing supported pinion gear. A multi-disc Japanese oiled felt drag system, rigid metal handle design, and 4BB + 1RB bearing configuration deliver smooth and dependable operation across a wide range of fishing conditions.
