Shimano Saragosa
Submitted by Nauti Buoy on Mon, 2009-05-11 20:03
Does anyone have a Saragosa. I am thinking of getting one for some Deep jigging, lure casting etc. Probably get the largest size and load it with 30lb or 50lb fireline
Any thoughts

Drop Rosco a PM mate, he got one recently and is pretty happy with it after giving it a good working over.

Gosa!
A fine real thats for sure and can handle the punishment. Go a nice braid to maximise line capacity and casting!

Have 4
I have the 4000, 5000, 8000 and the 14000. Started out with the 8 after thinking that a stella would get abused by me. Decided to go the next best and this led to the Gosa. Speaks wonders for the reel that I now have 4. The better half is a gun fisho and the 4 and 8 is hers and she has pulled monsters in with them. I have 2 Spheros and havent looked at them since the Gosas.
You wont regret getting one.

Saragosa
Got a 18000 saragosa and have had no probs with it. Caught this
and one similar and no drama. Haven't had it long so can't say how it will handle the test of time. Seems to be a nice smooth reel with plenty of drag. 20kgs out of the box apparently.
GO BLUES.
