Shimano Stella SW 14000 XG Ocea Plugger Limited Medium Heavy Topwater Spin Combo has the right pair for the job. You've got the unrelenting power of the Stella SW 14000 XG Spinning Reel, perfectly matched with the heavy-duty durability and strength of the Ocea Plugger Limited Medium Heavy Topwater Spin Rod. An exceptional combo designed to deliver superior performance and the best bang for your buck!
The Reel Upgraded for increased power and enhanced durability, the new
Shimano Stella SW 14000 XG Spinning Reel represents the pinnacle of innovation for Shimano reel technology and fish-fighting performance. This flagship reel features a range of upgrades including Infinity Drive for light and powerful winding, and the upgraded Heatsink Drag provides superior drag performance under extreme heat.
A waterproof rating of IPX8 is achieved through X-Protect and X-Shield with the aluminium Hagane Body acting as a rigid and super tough outer shell. A new and improved rotor design makes this reel lighter than the previous Stella SW models. The 14000 XG model is designed for saltwater casting.
HAGANE Body HAGANE Body means this reel has a high rigidity and zero twist. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the anglers actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.
HAGANE Gear Hagane Gear is at the very heart of the reel and creates strength and durability. The entire cold-forging process is calculated in minute detail by special 3D design and the result is precision durability.
X-Protect By combining Shimano's water repellent coating and Shimano's specially designed, water channeling labyrinth construction, X-Protect provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear and rotor rotation.
X-Ship By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with the S-ARB bearings and integrating bigger drive gear, Shimano increased the gearing efficiency and power. This results in a fishing reel with ultra-light handle rotation; less effort and power giving a perfect rotation even under heavy loads.
The Rod The
Shimano Ocea Plugger Limited Medium Heavy Topwater Spin Rod utilises Spiral X and Hi-Power X blank construction with the ability to withstand a 60-degree fighting angle. A light rod with uncompromised strength. Shimano's patented Spiral X blank construction reduces blank twist and leads to longer, more accurate casting. Less blank twist also makes it easier to pull on big fish and takes pressure off the angler. Hi-Power X technology reduces ovalisation and increases strength to protect from breakage. Spiral X combined with Hi-Power X provides you with a best-in-class strength-to-weight ratio popping and plugging rod.
Hi-Power X In Hi-Power X construction, the blank's outermost layer is diagonally wrapped with carbon tape, which forms an array of X shapes. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. The flexibility allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp control by the angler.
Spiral X Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a blank made of vertical fibres, an inner layer, and an outer layer both comprised of carbon tape that tightly winds the blank diagonally in opposite directions. By using this carbon tape in place of a conventional horizontal fibre sheet, Spiral X achieves enhanced torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fighting fish. Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano's Spiral X construction enhances your catching power.
