Shimano Stella Spinning Reels FE

Winner of the 2010 ICAST - Best of Show in the Freshwater Reel Category - the Shimano Stella FE Spinning Reel Series takes spinning reel performance to the next level yet again.  As Shimano’s showcase spinning reel series, all of the technology and features Shimano has at its disposal are included in the Stella FE Series - including Shimano’s latest, industry leading technology.  Featuring Shimano’s X-Ship Double Bearing Supported Pinion Gear, the X-Ship system increases the gearing efficiency and power, providing anglers with ultra-light handle rotation.  Combined with Shimano’s Paladin Gear Durability Enhancement, anglers will notice out-of-the-box smoothness year-after-year, and a revolutionary E.I. surface treatment on the cold forged aluminum spool greatly resists corrosion - key for saltwater use. 

The Stella FE Spinning Reel Series incorporates a long list of proven Shimano features, including the Propulsion Line Management System, which virtually eliminates any line twist and increases casting distance, as well as, SR Concept, Rigid Support System, Aerowrap II, Dyna-Balance and Super Stopper II. All four Stella reels also feature 14 S A-RB shielded anti-rust ball bearings, lightweight magnesium frames and sideplates, a waterproof drag and Septon Handle Grips (paddle grips on the 1000, flat T on the 2500, and Saltwater T on the 3000 and 4000).  With the new features and proven track record, the Shimano Stella FE Spinning Reel Series deliver top-of-the-line performance.

Comments: im sure its a nice reel and i fish at least 4 days a week. I would never spend this amount of money on a reel. Do yourself a favor buy a stradic or saros and spend the rest on a new tv.

Comments: I own a Steez and a Stella FE, no comparaison, the Stella is much more superior ( drag, smoothess, feeling,quality)

Comments: You need this reel on your rod! I currently own three Stellas: two 2500 FDs, and one 1000 FE. the two FDs are paired up with two st.croix legend extreme rods and the FE is paired up with a Gloomis NRX rod. All my reels spin like a Rolex ticks and I wont use any other reels. Liquid smoothness and reliability is what shimano is known for, this reel is the best i have ever owned. Give it a try you wont be sorry.

Comments: Own STELLA 4000fa/2500fa/1000fd/3000fe/2500fe &1000fe. Also own other shimanos stradic/sustain/stradic CI4. Caught a 60 lb catfish on 6lb. mono with 2500fa. These reels hold up and catch everything. The FA's are great, the FD's amazing, but the new FE's are truely incredibly SMOOOOTH! Spin the handle and it moves so fast you can not count the times it makes complete rotations. Yes they are expensive, but I've fished from the Florida keys, to the Gulf Coast of Texas/Louisiana, and freshwater too. ZERO breakdown/failures; ZERO! and some of my stellas (FA's) are over 20 years old. Best spinning reels of their size on market. Lastly, check the weights: 1000fe 6.0 oz, 2500fe 7.0oz, 3000fe 7.1 oz. Tackle Warehouse has 1000fd at super nice bargain price right now. Want the "Best of the Best". Pick up a Stella FE.
