Hi everibody,
I've used shimanos for a lot of years in the caribbean, mainy from boat, but from shore too, for big tarpon (100-120lbs) and jack crevalle most of the time; I've bought a Stella after seeing Saltiga, the 10000 model I dedicated to extreme fishing like giant trevally.
It's all metal, kind of perfect machine (as perfect as areel can be now), very smooth and waterproof, with a 3 years warranty here in Italy.
I can recommend it to everyone ready to afford the price.
For some extreme reel testing look this link:
