SHIMANO Saros 3000F Spinning Reel
Featuring a 1000 size spool on a 750 body, the Saros F brings new meaning to light tackle, but do not mistake its small size for timidness. Utilizing the new Paladin Gear Durability Enhancement and Propulsion Spool Lip, durability, reliability and performance are nothing to worry about. Add in Shielded A-RB bearings, a sealed Maintenance Port, and thread-in machined Aluminum handle, along with many other features, the Saros F will be a performer for years to come.

Dyna-Balance
This feature eliminates wobble during the retrieve by counter balancing the rotor to enhance sensitivity and smoothness. By using computer balancing, an approach similar to car tire balancing, we are able to redistribute the rotor weight to create smooth rotation and eliminate vibrations caused by the reel.
Super Stopper II
Super Stopper II anti-reverse uses a one-way bearing that eliminates backplay.This provides the angler with instant hooksetting power. In some reels, the Super Stopper II can be turned off toallow backreeling for special techniques and situations.
Direct Drive Mechanism
The drive gear is directly attached to the handle, which means power is transmitted more efficiently with less vibration while increasing durability.
Waterproof Drag
With the use of rubber gaskets, the dragis protected against intrusion of the elements, such as water or sand.
Paladin Gear Durability Enhancement
Paladin Gear Durability Enhancement Spinning Using a special cold forged aluminum drive gear and a hardened brass pinion gear, reels equipped with the Paladin Gear Durability Enhancement will retain their out-of-the-box smoothness much longer than before. In fact, testing has shown that this combination of metals is more durable than an all-stainless steel drivetrain while maintaining the smoothness that Shimano is famous for.
Septon Handle Grips
This handle grip material is soft to the touch and does not get slippery when wet.
Fluidrive II
Building upon the successes of Fluidrive, which provides extremely tight tolerances and control in the cutting process, Fluidrive II polishes the gear surface to maximize tooth contact. This increases the efficiency of the retrieve for more power with less effort.
Aerowrap
This two-speed oscillation system layers the line onto the spool in acriss-cross pattern that reduces line-to-line friction for longer casts. Aerowrap reels utilize a worm gear designto move the spool upward quickly and downward slowly to wind the line in a precise pattern, reducing friction and giving smoother, longer casting ability.
Slow Oscillation
This oscillation system is more advanced than Aerowrap, which uses a criss-cross line lay to reduce friction. Instead, slow oscillation uses a tightly packed parallel pattern to reduce the chance of the upper layer of line grabbing the lower layer, creating unwanted friction. The result is an evenly shaped linelay, with excellent castability and control.
SR One-Piece Bail
This one-piece bail wire has no gap for line to snag on during normal operation. Made of stainless steel, it reuces friction and allows the line to get onto the line roller quicker.
