Description
The Shimano Stella 2500S is the finesse-to-light-spin size in Shimano's flagship Stella spinning reel family. Shimano's specification chart lists the 22 Stella FK 2500S at a 5.1:1 gear ratio, 4 kg maximum drag, 205 g weight and 12/1 bearings.
It suits premium light plastics, small hardbaits, finesse presentations and general estuary or freshwater spinning where smooth start-up, controlled drag and refined line lay matter. The shallow 2500S spool is a strong match for light braid with a fluorocarbon leader.
Best matched with: a light or medium-light spin rod, 6-12 lb braid and leader strength matched to cover.

Key features
InfinityXross Gearing
A widened, cross-cut gear tooth profile spreads cranking load more evenly across the drive gear, extending main-gear durability.
DuraCross Drag System
Stacked DuraCross carbon washers give up to ten times the drag durability of felt while retaining a smooth, consistent feel.
InfinityDrive Transmission
A redesigned drive shaft and gear interface inside the magnesium HAGANE body improve winding power transfer through the retrieve.
InfinityLoop Spool Lip
A reprofiled spool lip smooths the line's release path off the spool, cutting friction for longer, more stable casts.
