Cedros A Jigging

The Okuma Cedros A Jigging is a heavy-duty speed jigging and bottom jigging series built for offshore anglers made for large pelagics and deep-water bottom species, tuna, amberjack, yellowtail, grouper, and similar serves where jig weights exceed 80g and line classes run 30–200 lb. The series spans a demanding power range, from M models handling moderate jig weights through XXH models rated for jigs approaching 25 oz, making it one of the more comprehensive heavy jigging lineups at its price tier. Blanks are E-glass construction, a deliberate choice to absorb the shock from low-stretch braided lines under strike, while maintaining the lifting power needed for deep-water fish.

ALPS high-rise 316 stainless steel guide frames with Zirconium inserts handle braid friction at high line loads. Spiral-shaped EVA foregrips and a machined aluminum reel seat (ALPS pyramid design) distinguish the component specification from budget offshore alternatives. The series carries a lifetime warranty and is frequently cited as competitive with rods at higher price points. Fourteen models divide into conventional (casting) and spinning formats across three lengths: 5'6", 6', and 6'6" for casting; 6' and 7' for spinning.

Power ratings climb from M through XXH. The 5'6" XH and XXH casting models handle the heaviest jigs for targeted deep-water amberjack or giant trevally scenarios. The M and MH models at 6' and 6'6" address lighter-duty speed jigging. Spinning models top out at H power, suited for situations where spinning gear is preferred for jig presentation.
