Product Description
Shimano Symetre FI Spinning Reel. The Shimano Symetre FI Spinning Reel... smooth, silent, strong and so much more: Aluminum frame (except model 750 which is graphite); Cold forged aluminum spool provides increased strength and durability; Graphite sideplate and rotor; Spare cold forged aluminum spool; S-Concept design for a smooth, silent and strong Reel; Slow oscillation lays the line in a parallel pattern for excellent castability and control; S-Arm Cam protruding surface on the bail arm keeps slack line in contact with the line roller to reduce the chance of tangles and line cuts; Maintenance Port, a sealed plug that can be removed using a screwdriver to easily lubricate the drive train without disassembling the reel; A-RB (anti-rust bearings) are specially treated stainless steel ball bearings that are at least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings; Fluidrive II boasts increased tooth contact for increased efficiency; Super Stopper II is a 1-way roller bearing that eliminates backplay for solid hooksets, yet can be turned on or off to allow back-reeling; Dyna-Balance uses counterbalancing techniques in the rotor to eliminate wobble during the retrieve; Power Roller II is an oversized line roller that reduces twist from casting and retrieving and is enhanced with a tapered area on the support to help line get onto the roller; Friction is reduced between the pinion gear and spool shaft for increased smoothness and durability

5 out of 5 stars Shimano Symetre equals quality   August 8, 2008
I have purchase a shakesphere reel and it took 1 month of fishing to destroy the reel, so i went and purchased the shimano symetre and this reel cast like a champ. This reel is heavy duty and very smooth. If you looking for a real reel get a shimano..... The Name Says It All.

This is the best spinning reel, priced below $200, I have ever used. You should ignore the fact that this reel doesn't have vented spools and has fewer bearings than other reels in its price range. Those are cosmetic features often used by manufacturers to mask a general lack of quality. This reel is strong, quiet and reliable. It casts long, has perfect line lay and makes absolutely no rubbing noise during oscilation. Shimano reels are more durable than other brands I have used and are very easy to maintain, requiring only an occasional addition of a few drops of oil. This service is made even easier thanks to the lube port provided on this model. This is the smoothest, most silent, most durable and easy to maintain reel I have ever used and I would recommend it to anyone.
