The Shimano 22 Stella C2000SHG represents the pinnacle of Japanese expertise in spinning reels. Designed without compromise, it embodies the absolute pursuit of smoothness, power, and durability, in a compact format perfectly suited to modern finesse fishing.

This C2000SHG (Compact 2000 – Super High Gear) version is ideal for technical fishing requiring fast and precise retrieval, such as trout, rockfishing, ajing, mebaring or fine fishing in fresh and sea water.

Thanks to the combination of Infinity Cross , Infinity Drive , and Infinity Loop technologies, the Stella 22 offers exceptionally smooth rotation, drastically reduced friction, and significantly greater mechanical strength than previous generations. Every crank rotation delivers a feeling of total control, even under stress.

Built to last, the Stella features a HAGANE body, a reinforced DURA-CROSS drag system, ultra-quiet Silent Drive operation, and excellent saltwater protection. This reel is designed to accompany the demanding angler for many years, without any loss of performance.

The Stella 22 incorporates Infinity Cross technology, which optimizes the gear contact surface to better distribute stress and significantly increase the mechanism's durability. Infinity Drive reduces internal resistance during rotation, providing smooth power recovery even under load.
The Infinity Loop system improves line winding through ultra-slow spool oscillation, reducing friction during casting and significantly improving distances and accuracy.
The Silent Drive eliminates internal micro-vibrations for extremely quiet and smooth operation. The DURA-CROSS drag system ensures excellent wear resistance while maintaining perfect progressive action, even after long sessions. Finally, the X Protect protection and Saltwater OK design make this reel perfectly suited for saltwater use.
