Shimano Stella C3000FK Spinning Reel – Refined Power and Precision

The Shimano Stella legacy continues with the latest C3000FK Spinning Reel, built to deliver unmatched performance through top-tier engineering and innovation. Designed for serious anglers, this reel boasts cutting-edge gear strength, exceptional torque, advanced line handling, and ultra-smooth drag. With this new generation Stella, Shimano pushes the boundaries of spinning reel technology, unlocking endless angling potential.

Advanced Technologies:

Infinity XROSS – Superior Gear Contact and Strength
Improved gear tooth geometry and enhanced manufacturing precision increase the engagement surface between the drive gear and pinion gear. By spreading stress evenly across the gear teeth, Infinity XROSS dramatically boosts gear durability and minimizes the risk of damage under pressure.

Infinity Loop – Smooth, Efficient Line Lay
This feature extends the spool’s up-and-down motion at a very slow pace, creating a consistent and precise winding pattern with minimal overlap. The result is reduced friction during casting, allowing for smoother, longer casts—especially beneficial when using lightweight lures.

Infinity Drive – Effortless Cranking Under Load
A major evolution over the traditional X-SHIP system, Infinity Drive replaces pinion shaft support with a low-friction bushing. The treated main shaft significantly lowers rotational resistance, making the reel noticeably easier to turn—even when retrieving under heavy load.

Anti-Twist Fin – Tangle-Free Line Control
A soft, flexible fin placed near the line roller maintains optimal line tension. It prevents slack and reduces the chance of the line slipping underneath the spool or wrapping unevenly, improving line management and casting efficiency.

DURACROSS Drag – Built to Last
This next-generation drag washer uses a high-durability synthetic weave that far outperforms standard materials. DURACROSS delivers a smooth, consistent drag experience while offering over ten times the wear resistance of traditional drag washers.

Propulsion Line Management System – Maximize Casting Distance
Shimano’s Propulsion Spool Lip is designed using thousands of casting tests and simulations. It provides a longer, smoother cast while minimizing the risk of wind knots and backlash, ensuring greater control and distance with every throw.
