Shimano 20 Stradic SW 4000 HG Spinning Reel
Smooth Power with Offshore Toughness
Engineered for serious saltwater anglers, the Shimano 20 Stradic SW 4000 HG Spinning Reel delivers strength, reliability, and silky cranking in one rugged package. Designed to withstand the brutal demands of offshore fishing, it incorporates high-end Shimano technologies typically reserved for flagship reels.
With Infinity Drive, the reel offers ultra-smooth winding even under heavy pressure, thanks to a redesigned pinion support system that reduces resistance by up to 60%. Silent Drive further enhances smoothness by eliminating internal play and vibrations. X-Protect and X-Shield provide advanced water resistance, sealing the reel against saltwater intrusion, while X-Ship ensures consistent, powerful gear performance under load.
Whether you're casting for snapper, kingfish, or other offshore predators, the Stradic SW 4000HG gives you the edge with dependable strength and refined precision.
