Description
Shimano Stella SW8000HGC is the new version of the legendary Stella range. Built for anglers that fish hard and want their tackle to stand up to any hard fighting fish of a lifetime.
The Shimano Stella 2019 range of spinning reels are the latest edition to the legacy of Stella Spinning Reels that have lead the fishing world in durability, power and operability. Shimano builds on that tradition with cutting edge technologies, bringing further unmatched strength, reliability and ease of use to serious saltwater anglers.
Featuring Shimano's signature HAGANE Body, Stella SW boasts a highly rigid metal construction. This means exceptional impact resistance and less body flex under the pressure of heavy loads, keeping the internal gears and components properly aligned for continued flawless performance. At the heart of the reel, Shimano-proven HAGANE Gears are cold forged for lasting durability and smoothness.
With the introduction of X-Ship in the 2013 Stella SW, the Stella changed the way anglers look at targeting giant fish on spinning gear. This dual-bearing supported pinion gear system allowed for easier and smoother winding under enormous pressure, allowing anglers to use spinning reels to target bigger fish than ever before. While X-Ship has since become a standard feature among many Shimano reels, the 2019 Stella SW features Shimano's new Infinity Drive Technology that offers an even further improved winding experience, optimizing winding torque by and additional 26%. SilentDrive further improves smoothness by eliminating worm shaft and drive gear play, along with any sound or clicking from all functional parts.
For even better drag performance, Shimano’s new HeatSink Drag transfers heat away from the spool, reducing spool surface temperature by up to 100 degrees. Stella SW's IPX8 waterproof body along with X-Protect and X-Shield's water resistant construction in the line roller and roller bearing guard your investment against the harsh elements of a saltwater environment so you can fish with confidence.
The Stella SW is available in 4 different models that offer varying line capacities and gear ratios to cover a wide array of saltwater fishing techniques. The models are the 8000PG and HG, 10000PG and 14000XG sizes. We also have the 4000 model in stock. The HG or "High Gear" models feature a mid-range gear ratio that offers an ideal balance of speed and power for a number of common techniques, while the PG and XG models are more technique specific. PG or "Power Gear" models feature lower gear ratios to provide increased power and torque for jigging and bottom fishing applications, while XG Models utilize a high gear ratio for faster retrieval rates for casting lures, Stella SW takes another step up in powerful, reliable performance.
