Savage Gear Reel SGS 6 Saltwater Reel
With great anticipation we've awaited them: The spinning reels from Savage Gear. Finally, the tackle forge has its own range of reels, which perfectly completes the rod arsenal of the brand. And the SG series proves perfectly that Savage Gear does not just build "any" 0815 reels off the shelf. Back to the drawing board and putting all heads together was the name of the game, and it paid off. Savage Gear's reels are packed with technical features and industry-leading technology. The quality, as we've come to expect from Savage Gear, leaves nothing to be desired. To prove how much Savage Gear believes in their own reels they offer a 5-year warranty! In addition to the well thought-out features, the series also covers a broad field of price ranges and applications, so that every angler - regardless of budget - can find the right Savage Gear reel for their own purposes.
The SGS6 is the most affordable saltwater reel from Savage Gear, but the attractive price is deceptive, because this reel is packed with great features, cutting-edge technology and bristles with power. Housing and handle are made of sturdy aluminum, while the rotor is made of a carbon reinforced composite material. A material mixture, which is absolutely torsion and salt water resistant. For added protection against saltwater and corrosion, the reel has been treated with an SRC500 coating.
The aluminum handle is screwed into the gear wheel without wobbling and transmits the rotational force directly to the gear. The 6+1 stainless steel ball bearings ensure smooth running, even under the toughest conditions. The ball bearings are also completely sealed and protected from external influences. The proprietary DuraGrease protects the gearbox from corrosion and wear over the long term, even under the toughest use. The Fricton Control System is also completely sealed and perfectly protected from external influences. This drag system is based on 3-layer washers: A fiberglass washer coated with carbon fiber on both sides. The drag discs are thus particularly rigid and robust, and can even be reversed to extend the service life. The drag produce incredible braking power, which can be very finely adjusted, but produces impressive fish-stopping-power up to over 20 kg.
In short, the SGS6 from Savage Gear is unbeatable in terms of price-performance. If you're looking for a reliable saltwater reel with incredible stopping power and a durable body, but don't want to dig too deep into your pocket, you can't go past the SGS6.
