SHIMANOSienna Spinning Fishing Reel

Bought this shimano c3000fg to use/keep as a spare/back up reel but on seeing the quality and spooling it up with 8lb line (remembering to NOT overfill the line and putting the spool into warm water for a couple of hours to ‘retrain’ the line to the spool) I will be using it this coming weekend when I go fishing and keeping my normal 4000 size reel as a back up. It turns smooth as silk and the anti reverse is solid with no backlash. It’ll do well for what I’m fishing for (trout on a fishery/reservoir). The body is XT-7 which is used on shimano ‘entry’ level reels and even the mid range reels so should do well as it’s 20% stronger than graphite. It doesn’t come with a spare spool but these can be easily found using a google search👌🏼Edit (29th sept 2024) used this reel yesterday and landed 3 trout around 3-4lb mark. It performed solidly. Whisper quiet and smooth.

Very nice reel for the money! Smooth retrieves and casts nice!!! I’ve had nothing but Shimano reels since I was a kid, you can’t go wrong with them! Great bang for the buck, and they last!!!👍

Good value for money, was using it for pink salmon fishing. Seems reliable reel, smooth work.

Buena calidad
