Shimano Stella SW Spinning Reel
Unmatched in the field, this is the premier spinning reel for relentless inshore anglers and do-or-die tournament pros. The Stella represents the culmination of decades of Shimano technology, research and development. Element-blocking SW-Concept engineering builds on time-tested S-Concept ideals - smooth, silent, strong - by sealing out corrosive saltwater for proven reliability you can always bank on. It has a saltwater-resistant aluminum body and waterproof SW-Hyper Disk Drag for top-of-the-line performance after repeated drenchings and dunkings. Cold-forged Paladin gears, Fluidrive II polished gear surfaces, and a hardened, low-wear pinon gear preserve this reel's out-of-the-box smoothness for years of hard fishing. A performance-tuned, shielded A-RB 15-bearing system with Super-Stopper II and Assist-Stopper anti-reverse provides flawlessly smooth action and responsive power for instant hooksets with no backplay. High-end Propulsion Line Management System combines its innovative titanium-coated spool lip with pitch-perfect Aero Wrap II Oscillation for superior winding and even line lay that translates into longer casts with less kinks. Power Roller IV oversized line roller with a diamond-like DLC coating. Dyna-Balance eliminates wobble on fast retrieves. Direct Drive thread-in handle for increased power transmission. Maintenance ports for on-the-go lubrication without disassembly. Redesigned, more efficient bail trip. S-Arm Cam. Ergonomic, Septon handle grips. Stopperless design has no anti-reverse switch.

Lamson Vanquish Reel
Waterworks-Lamsons most advanced technologies combine to create their most powerful fly reels ever. The large conical drag with fully sealed, zero-maintenance components generates twice the torque of previous saltwater designs. This proprietary system passes the harshest blue-water tests, delivering smooth reliability under line-snapping strain. Fully stainless steel, zero-lash tandem roller clutch delivers instant fail-safe engagement. Engineered for high stiffness and rigidity, the 6061 machined-aluminum frame supports increased levels of torque inherent with the most demanding fishing situations. Integrated foot/frame is stronger than a traditional fastened-on foot and also raises the center of mass of the reel, improving casting ease and accuracy. By increasing the coating thickness and reducing porosity, the hard alox finish resists scratches and the effects of saltwater environments. Large, ergonomic, self-lubricating no-slip handle.

Okuma Makaira Elite Lever Drag Saltwater Reel - MK-50W11 - Reels
6061-T6 machined aluminum frame with forged side plates Carbonite Dual Force Drag (DFD) system Helical cut gears for extreme smoothness and gear meshing Gold anodized two-speed gear shifter housing Cold forged, Type-II anodized, machined aluminum spool Double dog, proprietary silent anti-reverse system Ratcheting drag lever and drag cam for precise drag setting Backed by a 5-year warranty The Okuma Makaira Elite Lever Drag Saltwater Reel's uncompromising design, construction, drag and performance truly gives big game anglers the upper-hand when battling heavy-hitting gamefish like billfish, shark and marlin. Thanks to its 6061-T6 machined aluminum frame with forged side plates, the rock-solid, two-speed Makaira Reel provides unyielding strength and integrity when under heavy pressure, ensuring all internal components stay aligned. DFD DragThe Makaira features Okuma&8217;s specialized carbonite Dual Force Drag (DFD) system which is mounted on the right side of the spool in order to bring all the mechanical workings together to maximize alignment and durability. The DFD system was specifically designed around a Pull Bar Drag System which, unlike other reels with a Push Bar Drag System, increases drag pressure while reducing side load pressure to improve heat dissipation for long-term smoothness and performance. At the heart of the DFD system is a custom-made thrust bearing that absorbs side load pressure on ball bearings. This allows anglers to fish heavy drag settings without handle binding. Gearing and ShaftsThe Makaira Elite Lever Drag Reel utilizes helical cut main and pinion gears that engage more gradually than straight cut or spur gear teeth, resulting in improved gear meshing and overall smoothness. The main gears, pinion gears, drive shaft and spool shaft are machine cut from 17-4 stainless steel. This hybrid steel provides excellent corrosion and heat resistance along with superior strength. Gear Shifting Housing The Makaira&8217;s two-speed shifting mechanism is housed in a heavy-duty, 6061-T6 grade aluminum housing with ported exterior. The shifter function features an oversized shift button to make shifting easier for all anglers regardless of finger size. Bearings Engineered with four precision EZO ball bearings (80W11 has six ball bearings), the Makaira Reel uses ABEC-5 grade bearings for precision performance in all conditions. ABEC-5 bearings deliver friction free spinning, improved casting distance and reduced tension while live bait fishing. Plus, the Makaira Reel is designed with a stainless steel thrust bearing which absorbs side load pressure and allows the handle to crank freely under heavy loads. Additional features: CRC: Corrosion Resistant Coating process Patented spool pin system for use with braided or mono lines Custom designed thrust bearing&8212;alleviates side load on heavy drag settings 4-pc. ABEC-5 precision Sapporo stainless steel rubber sealed ball bearings MK-80WII features 6-pc. Sapporo ball bearings
