Shimano Stella 8000SW

Shimano Stella 8000SW

If you want to get the best out of your heavy duty fishing, look no further. This is exactly why Shimano engineered the new Stella SW. Next to withstanding the biggest fish this reel is developed to conquer its worst enemy; SALT. A new Shimano protective coating ensures optimal protection against corrosion. For personal protection there is no anti-reverse on this range of reels. Stella SW will become a saltwater legend in 2009 and beyond.
