I take it from your other post that you're after a spin reel for jigging right?

I'm no spin jigger but the Spheros, sustain and saragosa reels in 10000 size would all be pretty good I imagine.

Saltiga mate... Z6500 Dogfight covers jigging and stick baiting easy. I got one and love it. There was some one trying to sell one on the buy/sell page not that long ago.

Everyone is presuming you are made of money!!!! If on a budget go for the saragosa 10K. Whole lot of reel for 1/3 the price of a stella or 1/4 the price of a saltiga

agreed.

if you are looking to spend around the $500, and want a shimano as you say you are, saragosa is a good option. i have abused mine for six years and it still goes well.

Why do you say that ?? do they break or crack and have you owned one. I was looking because I cant afford anything else due to no work so no money to save.

Just a cheeky reference to a thread that was on here a week or so ago, you can go searching if you like but I'm sure they're decent reels. I've never had one.
The review by alan hawk definitely sounds good.
