Sahara FJ Spinning Reel

The Sahara range of front drag reels combines modern design with many of SHIMANO's best technical features. Perfect for many freshwater and saltwater methods, this is a stylish, mid-range reel that offers durable performance and versatility. One look tells you that the Sahara is a serious mill you can rely on. The stylish looks are more than matched by the impressive range of technology combined with a remarkably affordable price. The Sahara is whisper quiet, runs sublimely and if you prefer to play fish through back winds or other times when you want to be able to give line quickly, then the anti-reverse button has been added to complement the great front drag. With a large number of models available, the Sahara completely redefines this price segment and makes a lasting impression. The first thing you notice when using the Sahara is how smooth, quiet and deceptively powerful it is when turning, especially when fishing under pressure. This is due to a combination of HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP and Silent Drive. This technical trilogy is usually found on Shimano's more expensive reels and is an unexpected bonus for all Sahara owners. Use the reel on the lightest rods and you will experience the balance of the G-Free body. Fit the largest 4000 or 5000 size on a heavy lure or feeder rod and you will greatly appreciate the extra power and directness of the screw-in handle and the smooth casting performance of the AR-C spool with Varispeed II oscillation. If you fish with ultra finesse, take a look at the 500 mini version or the slightly larger 1000 model. For fishing light and medium lures, float and feeder fishing the 2000, medium 2500 and 3000 are a pleasure to use. The 4000 is great for pike, barbel and mid-range feeder reel and asp (XG version). The 5000 XG is a powerhouse that inspires confidence for similar fisheries. The choice is yours!
