Well, after using several reels for surf, rock and pier fishing, I can comfortable state that Shimano Saragosa SW is one of the best.Especially, if you need to choose one reel for your overseas trip, this reel will cover many types of fishing and will not let you down. Compared to Baitrunners, I especially prefer this for saltwater and sand resistance. As a mechanical engineer and experienced traveller fisherman, I can conclude that fine sand is the major enemy of fixed spool reels, especially for clutch bearing and and line roller bearing. This reel's sealed body is perfect for harsh environments. I reel in the surf with this reel. (important note: sand is a problem even out of water; as sandy wind on the beach is dangerous for baitrunners).

This is a beast of a reel. It is big and it is powerful with 44-Lbs of drag and plenty of line capacity to boot.Paired with a Shimano 11-foot Tiralejo Surf Rod this thing casts fantastic distances. Cannot compare with the Stella 18000, but it is close.This reel is a great value for the dollar and can handle almost- not all- any sport fish one would care to handle in the Gulf of Mexico and its bays.One cannot go wrong with this reel!

I own Penn, Fin-Nor, Daiwa, Okuma, Accurate and Shimano reels...For the price- this is by far, the most reel i've ever gotten for my money. Capacity, Drag, Durability, ease of maintenance, all exactly what I would expect in a high-end reel, for a little less money than you'll pay anywhere else. Overkill on 20# Snapper, run-stopper on 50# Ling and a perfect match for when you're jigging 100# YFT.

In reality it's the spheros... but I bought this for the extra strength and we'll because it looks better. This reel is butter and everything I expect from shimano. I paired it with a travel med hvy tide master and maxcuatro braid. It casts amazingly and retrieves with ease. Love this reel.

Great reel.. after a ton of research I got a couple of these and near perfect. The only fault is no line holder .. the rubber band things suck since they get lost and stretch. I can understand keeping the reel clean and simple but need a solution for that.this reel is simply outstanding

The reel is extremely durable I’ve been using it for 6mo on the coast of Japan and this thing makes reeling in 20-30lb fish easy. I pulled it apart to clean it after catching a few salmon and yellowtail, still looks new inside, the seals are holding great and no sign on salt

Versatile reel. Strong smooth drag. I have used it for jigging, trolling, live bait, and bottom fishing. With all the species in South Florida a solid performing reel is important. Handles Gags, sails, Dolphin and Kings well.

I was between this and a Van Staal, and my friends told me for the price this can't be beat. I have used it a handful of times and I have caught some nice Bass and Bluefish with ease. Great reel. Looks sexy as well.

I love my new Saragossa SW reel...it is big enough to catch the biggest game fish out there, and yet versatile enough for jigging and casting out to catch smaller kelp and reef fish.Great reel, great price.

Amazing reel. It feels solid, casts excellent, has great drag. I used it a couple of times only and compared to other reels I have from Shimano this is the best. You can feel how good it is when you use it!

????????????????????????????????????Beautifully made, only mildly disappointed in the “minimum” drag, but will forget that quickly when hooked into something that needs max drag. Sexy AF!

This reel is really smooth like butter and casts very well. Shimano quality assured. Only con is that it's on the smaller side. This is a 6000 series and feels more like 4500-5000.

i only used the reel twice and it seemed really nice but when i went to use it the 3rd time the drag broke wouldn’t tighten up now i have to take it to get fixed very disappointed

I really like the reel -good quality, smooth action and a good performer with no wind knots so far.Highly recommended but I wish it was a little less costly.

Really nice reel for casting if u don't like having a rats nest 1 out of 10 times you cast with an open face reel. Say bye bye to the rats nest.
