Shimano Spheros Spinning Reel
Unbeatable Saltwater Waterproofing: Shimano Spheros SW Reels
When fishing in harsh marine environments like the Cape Cod Canal or open offshore waters, gear failure isn't an option. The Shimano Spheros SW A series delivers near-bulletproof durability and IPX8-rated water resistance at a price point that makes serious saltwater power accessible to every angler. Built around a rigid Hagane Body and reinforced with X-Shield and X-Protect sealing technologies, the Spheros SW keeps saltwater, sand, and debris out of vital internal gears—even when taking heavy spray on the rocks.
Now upgraded with Shimano’s flagship Infinity Drive technology, the Spheros SW reduces frictional resistance on the main shaft, giving anglers maximum cranking power and winding leverage when hauling hard-fighting gamefish through heavy current. Coupled with Cross Carbon Drag washers, this reel provides the ultra-smooth, heat-resistant stopping power required to turn angry Striped Bass along the Canal wall or subdue fast-running Bluefin Tuna offshore.
Available in a wide range of versatile sizes:
-
Inshore & Light Surf (5000–6000): Lightweight yet powerful models tailored for long casting with jigs and plugs.
-
Heavy Surf & Ditch Fishing (8000–10000): High-capacity workhorses designed for heavy braid, high drag pressure, and deep-water jigging.
-
Offshore Big Game (14000–20000): Heavy-duty reels engineered to hold massive line capacities for live-baiting, popping, and trolling for pelagic predators.
