I just bought one! I refinanced my home!

[@joedennehy386]

Steve will be rapt with that matt. Saw it today, easily the best softbsit reel I've seen. Gonna get one. Amazing drag, slow oscillation and silky smooth.

[@2005mleal]

Love it!!! Way to go!!!

[@tornsaephanh5088]

Nice videos,what kind of rod you are using with Stella?

[@jordythebassist]

I'm going to pick one up in the 1000 size for finesse work. Bloody excited!!

[@HippieMagic]

I grabbed the 1000 and it’s great for finesse/smallmouth bass fishing.

[@natwilliams4076]

Amazing reel. Amazing first fish! Broke mine in on a 85cm jew. Effortless on 6kg gear.

[@jinsu0504]

Nice i broke mine to a sea robin lol

[@calvinjudofourie]

I spooled your reel mate, it's 15lb 🤣 nicely done!

[@Wvntted]

[@stephencasciola4045]

I'm on my second stella first one bought and returned second I received yesterday with both reels I was and currently am experiencing a knock on retrieval some call it a click feels more like a knock to me. Seriously considering the switch to the exist. Has you or anyone you know experienced a similar knocking issue with either reel ? Thank you

[@ggff-fz6de]

some first made 22 stella the oscillating guide A will shift；remove the rear protector and add a washer behind it

[@DrJanLindberg]

I switched to 22 Exist (have 4 so far), all perfect

[@chenkenny6986]

Which rod is it mate?

[@chriswalls5831]

My next bass pole maybe

[@wayne-oo]

At $1000 USD it’s a little pricey for the average fisherman !!

[@Kiwux.]

true

[@benrover1084]

True

[@Antipodean33]

yeah but you'd hawk em if they gave you a shit load of free stuff, I know I would

[@calvinjudofourie]

$1149.99 NZD mate 👌🏻 so more like just under 800 US

[@Gamgam4843n]

$1000 is alot? If you enjoy your fishing its a far cheaper then most other things. Can't put a price on your enjoyment.

[@rahulraut8747]

How many price (reel)

[@Pedro-ip8pj]

Nice Matt. What rod have you matched it to?

[@Marc_Yu]

The StabiCraft is really a nice boat. 👍

Dang would u dive for it if it fell in the water lmao. Id be pretty nervouse to unbox where you did

[@user-mo9wf1dl5u]

[@indosydneyfishing]

Between this and Daiwa Exist 3000D, what would you recommend?

[@UltimateFishingTV]

You can't beat a Stella!

[@fieshyfish]

Exist seems a little nicer to me.

[@joedennehy386]

@@fieshyfish having owned 3 small Stella's, an exist which melted in salt water, and a certate which up till now I liked the best. This reel is superior to all.of them, unless you are going for small fish in fresh water.

[@MoominCharlie831]

Stella’s design seems to be a little bit tougher and so I use that for medium to heavy saltwater game. For Exist, it should suits better for bass fishing and light game.

[@DrJanLindberg]

22 Exist all the way! Just ordered my 5th. :-)

[@jonathoncoates9170]

Greetings from England mate your looking abit rough !!!! Have you been on the beer 🍺 🤔

I think a hook in the fishes mouth will irritate the fish more than the drag lol. I can’t wait to get mine !

[@iwanebonk9560]

I like the Shimano Stella reel but I don't have the money to buy it🤦

[@hytak18]

Have a look at the Twinpower then mate

[@bestthingsinceslicedrice]

You dont have to buy a Stella since there are other mid price range reels that are good that have good quality too. The Twin Power, Exsence or the Vanquish are good examples or go the Daiwa route and get yourself a Certate or a Luvias Airity. Heck the Stradic FL reel if you know what you are doing is more than enough to last many seasons They say the Stella will last long but if you maintain your gear well then you think closely on what fish you are targetting and what style of fishing you will do. You dont really need to buy this reel

[@robberlin2230]

1000 dollars or just 500 litres of diesel

[@johnratcliffe6438]

I love Shimano fixed spool reels for fishing for Bass around the coast of the UK. The issue for me is never with the internal construction, but the ability of the line roller to continue to function perfectly. I find they stick and become quite irritating even with maintenance. The Stradic and Vanford both suffer from this. Trying to get hold of higher tier reels like the Vanquish or Stella in the UK is a joke as well; come on Shimano - pull your finger out...

[@joedennehy386]

Having owned 3 Stella's, certates, and exists. The key is. Don't move from place to place with the rods in the rod holder. Never let salt spray on them. Don't hose them down. I wipe them, inbox spray. And with the bail arm bearing a drop of shimano oil then move the bearing to bed it in with a rubber band. Spending more on a reel won't keep salt water off it.

Nice looking reel, but I burn one of those last year with a 30 pounder king, from what I see, old models are much better than this new version…

[@eojesoj6153]

not all angler can afford Stella. I prefer DAIWA

[@coldsteel998]

Very nice reel, but I've caught a lot of fish on my $30 reels and they have lasted YEARS.

[@ULFISHGETTER]

Sometimes you have to spoil yourself mate

[@joedennehy386]

A lada is a car, so is a ferrari. They will both get you from point A to point b. A bug is food, so is caviar. Using nice equipment really enhances your fishing pleasure, and that reel is so precise on the drag, and the drag is so smooth you are less liable to lose a fish. But I don't care what you do. I've owned cheap reels and Stella, certate, exist reels. And this is easily the best small spinning reel ever made.

[@dangkhang9479]

Don't get the stella, get the twin power instead

Why is that? I was contemplating a Shimano 6000 reel and im very curious about your reasonings!
