Shimano Stella SWB Spinning Reel

Shimano Stella SWB Spinning Reels – 8000 & 10000 Series (PG & HG Models)

The Shimano Stella SWB Series represents the pinnacle of offshore spinning reel technology, delivering unmatched strength, durability, and precision. Whether you’re targeting powerful reef dwellers or fast-moving pelagics, these reels are engineered to withstand the harshest saltwater battles while providing flawless performance in every crank.

Built for Extreme Saltwater Conditions

Designed for serious anglers chasing big game, the SWB models feature X-Ship, X-Rigid Gear, and X-Tough Drag systems to provide exceptional gear support, powerful retrieves, and class-leading drag performance. Each model is housed in a rigid aircraft-grade aluminum frame with X-Shield sealing and X-Protect triple-seal technology, delivering maximum water resistance and long-term durability.

Two Gear Options for Tactical Fishing

• PG (Power Gear) models like the 8000 SWB PG and 10000 SWB PG feature lower gear ratios (4.9:1) and exceptional torque for battling hard-pulling fish. They provide maximum control during jigging or lifting heavy species like GTs, tuna, and kingfish.

• HG (High Gear) option, such as the 8000 SWB HG, delivers faster retrieves (5.6:1) ideal for chasing fast-moving species and covering water quickly when casting lures or metal slices at pelagics.

Uncompromising Drag Power

All models boast a massive drag capacity—up to 28kg on the 8000s and 25kg on the 10000 PG—along with 14 S-ARB shielded bearings + 1 roller bearing to ensure smooth and consistent pressure even under extreme stress.
