Precision engineering excellence and a lifetime worth of experience in producing the most state of the art fishing equipment. There are no many threadline reels that can produce drag pressures in excess of 20kg with enough low-down torque to hustle massive gamefish….and still maintain an inexplicably smooth, fluid-like operation.

Shimano engineers also managed to masterfully maintain the trademark operational smoothness of each reel yet still gain a significant increase in gear durability. This enhancement was to be called Paladin – featuring a cold-forged main gear and stainless steel pinion. Even more impressive is the fact that each model has received a decrease in overall weight which equals greater and more comfortable fishability.
Another essential component of the Stella SW is the Propulsion Line Management system, putting an end to virtually all line twist and wind knot issues – Propulsion Spool Lip with exclusive anti-scratch coating, ultra tough SR One-Piece Bail system, SR Arm Cam, redesigned Bail Trip and Power Roller IV with over-flange for the ultimate in line protection.
