One of the best looking heavy duty spinning reels you’ll ever encounter, the Shimano Stella is one of those rare tackle items that defines its contemporaries, and sets the standard for the reels of the future. With a Core Solid concept, this reel is built to last, engineered to perform, and crafted to impress.
Designed along graceful, flowing lines, that channel the performance power and advanced technology of the reel’s drag and gearing perfectly, with nothing impeding the rush of strength and energy from angler to fish, the Stella reel is engineered for brilliance, and styled to impress.
In true Shimano tradition, the Stella reel is as much about function as it is about form, and comes fully loaded with the technology anglers have come to expect from Shimano, including all their X standard technology, such as X-Rigid Bail, Rotor, and Handle, which ensure an unrivalled strength and rigidity, X-Ship gear transmission, which gives a smooth feel when you need to bring the full force of your angling ability to bear on a particularly strong, feisty fish, and the rugged, heat, water, and friction resistant X-Tough drag, which gives the finesse you need for a truly sporting play, allowing you to feel every movement through the water, and giving you and the fish a safe, fun dance while you get everything in position to crank up the fight, and bring the fish into the bank.
With the power to take your predator performance to the limit, whether you’re luring cautious pike out of the margins, or working up a sweat taking on the strength and speed of bass out at sea, the Shimano Stella reel range looks set to become a firm favourite among angling’s elite; if you’ve got money to spend, then this reel, which is built around effortless power, and designed for enduring strength, is definitely an investment in yourself, your angling, and your future personal bests.
The subtly bold exterior echoes Shimano’s ethos of crafting understated elegance, and delivering unexpected performance that hits the spot every time. Designed to gleam gently in the late afternoon sun, as you play your favourite lure skilfully through weedy hideaways, dropping it up and down the water column, each tweak a targeted motion designed to attract attention and prompt the kind of fast, definite take predator anglers live for, the Stella is a powerhouse of a reel that brings a light touch to your angling experience, giving you the freedom to feel even the slightest movement, and the strength and speed to act when that movement becomes a solid bite.
Featuring Aerowrap II line lay, which ensures perfect presentation of lures and baits, the Shimano Stella is crafted from a die-cast aluminium body, with a cold-forged aluminium spool that delivers absolute power and ultimate smoothness. Every aspect of this reel works towards complete water resistance, and blends seamlessly to create an effortless angling experience that puts you in the driving seat, feeling the fight from the first cast to the final landing.
If you want the latest technology in the sleekest styles, your reel needs to be Shimano. If you want ultimate predator performance, from a reel that feels as though it’s barely there until it’s time to stop playing and get down to business, then you should definitely be reaching for a Stella.
Designed for power. Engineered for feel. Crafted to impress. Shimano is the brand that promises perfection, and Stella is the reel range that delivers on that promise. No more lies, no more need for those tall tales of the bankside – the Shimano Stella is a reel you can rely on to bring you results well worth bragging about. Imaginative, impressive, inevitable; when you’ve been in the game as long as Shimano have, you’re going to hit brilliance, and create a tackle piece no angler wants to be without.
