just sorting out my fishing stuff, and came across an okuma sting ray reel, 5 340, gears 4.1  does anyone know anything about this reel, is it any good, what type of fishing is it good for, maybe just the dustbin.

a stingray 340 is a 3 BB reel still in production to date and was a great success to tho okuma company.

ideal for pier fishing will still give you years of great moments with little maintenance.
