Savage Gear SGS8 5000 FD

This is our new SGS8, fully covered with the SW500. The spool is resistant to salt water in other ways as well, including its sealed 8 + 1 steel ball bearings, sealed advance system and lightweight and robust aluminum body and carbon-reinforced composite rotor.

However, the ability to withstand constant attacks of salt water is not the only quality of this reel. It also features our FCS 3 friction sliding system, which contains washers made in a three-layer design - a layer of fiberglass with a layer of carbon fiber on both sides. This gives the discs unsurpassed rigidity, resulting in ultra-smooth and powerful resistance that stops the fish - this also means they can be turned and used on both sides to extend their life.
