The Shimano Stradic FM 3000 combines premium construction, lightweight handling, and advanced Shimano technology in a versatile spinning reel built for demanding light-tackle anglers. At just 7.9 ounces, it delivers an impressive balance of power and finesse, making it equally at home chasing freshwater gamefish or working light inshore applications.
The Stradic FM incorporates InfinityXross for improved gearing efficiency and durability, while InfinityDrive reduces rotational resistance to provide easier cranking when you're fighting a fish. DuraCross Drag delivers smooth, dependable drag performance, and the Anti-Twist Fin helps improve line management and reduce tangles.
Inside, a rigid HAGANE Body and cold-forged HAGANE Gear provide a strong foundation for long-term durability. MicroModule II Gear, SilentDrive, and X-Ship further refine the retrieve, producing the smooth, quiet operation that sets the Stradic apart.
With a 6.4:1 gear ratio, 37 inches of line pickup per turn, 20 pounds of maximum drag, and approximately 200 yards of 10-pound braid capacity, the 3000-size Stradic FM offers an outstanding combination of speed, capacity, and power.
