Questions about SHIMANO Sienna Spinning Fishing Reel

what is the "super stopper" feature. Because the 1000 I just got spins freely in the reverse direction from just the handle weight

Answer: "super stopper" is the anti-reverse, meaning it's an instant anti-reverse. The reels ship with the switch off, but just turn it on and it will only spin one way. If you've ever used a really cheap spincast reel, the anti-reverse kicks in after maybe 1/4 turn of the handle, whereas this can go forward ONLY (when the switch is engaged).

Answer: The switch below the spool

In which country was this made?

Answer: Made in Malaysia. good reel.

I fish both Browns and Rainbows. When I use jigs Pond Smelt perform well here in No. CA Sierra lake near home.

what does the 500 fg weigh

Answer: I have the 500 and its the perfect size to fit the Shakespeare ugly dock runner. So yea its small but a beast. Got mine for $18 at Wal-Mart.

Hi...the 1000, 2000, 2500, 3000 etc. What do they mean?

which reel would be best for a medium action 5 & 1/2 foot Fenwick rod?

Answer: I wouldn't be caught dead using a Fenwick rod but if you want a decent all around 500 series shimano on the cheap without having to spend over 50 bucks, this is a good choice.

Answer: I use mine on 6’6” I would think maybe a little smaller, but if your rod lengths grow it will grow with it.

Answer: I'd probably put the 1000 series on it.

Answer: 200 or 300 series

How many ball bearings this reel has

What is the minimum # test can i put on the 4000 reel?

How much 10 lb braid will the 2500 hold?

Answer: 10 pound braid comes in different diameters so it’s very hard to say. I just load my reels up to about an 8th inch below the lip so that the the line goes out smoothly. If you specify the exact type of braid and pound test you are using and the diameter then it should be very easy to calculate by going to the Shimano website because they have all those details.

Answer: I’m guessing aluminum and steel

Product reviews of SHIMANO Sienna Spinning Fishing Reel

Mulinello già usato in passato! Non mi ha mai deluso!

ART1973 : good quality

smooth and light weight.

Amazon Customer : Really great reel and super affordable.

Excellent price, came earlier than expected and extremely good quality. If you are looking for a reel to help you get started or if you are a seasoned fisherman, definitely worth picking up!

Luca : Efficiente

Arrivato in tempo brevissimo il prodotto già lo conosco ottimo

Luis : Mulinello eccezionale

Fluido, provato subito per una battuta di spinning, ottimo mulinello

ART1973 : good quality

smooth and light weight.

Terry Bonnell : Great Reel

I work great and had no problems at all

Bowyer : Great reel

Great price, works just like the $70 reel.

Amazon Customer : Very smooth and awesome reel

I absolutely love this reel! Its currently on my Fenwick HMX rod that I use for crappie and bluegill fishing and runs very smoothly with the rod. Definitely a beautiful reel!

RENZO MONTOLDI : Buono , scorrevole e robusto.

Mi ha soddisfatto pienamente, ottimo prezzo , qualità Shimano, non si discute.

james : Have to return, not smooth.

Was not smooth. There is a bump in the spindle or something and gives resistance when the spool is at its bottom. Will be returning. Shame, it seemed nice.

Avery Gee : perfect for catching trout while backpacking

really light weight, small capacity is still plenty of line for catching trout while casting from a riverbank or lake shore. I spooled mine with 4lb flouro.

Antonio : Ok

Ottimo prodotto

Gerald Walters : Love it.

Works great.

Terry Bonnell : Great Reel

I work great and had no problems at all

dc : quality

very nice reel. casts nice and feels really well built. i would definitely buy another

Francesco Di Stefano ???? : Stupendo!

Venditore ottimo! Velocissimo nei tempi di consegna (arrivato 2 giorni prima della data prevista). Sul Prodotto non c'è che dire, bellissimo e degno del nome che porta! Resta solo provarlo!!!

Errol J. Adams : Problem with bail arm

I have been using Shimano reels for the past 25 years and have always been satisfied, except for this particular reel. I bought this reel twice within two years, and they worked fine for a few months. Then, after casting, I had to manually flip the bail arm back over the reel. I thought this was a defect on my first purchase since the bail arm on all my older Shimano reels never stopped flipping back automatically. So, I purchased this same reel for the second time and had the same problem, so I do not plan on purchasing this particular Shimano reel again.

Bowyer : Great reel

Great price, works just like the $70 reel.

john mcculloch : Smooth casting

Good little reel for the $s, cast nice and speed is good for cranking

John Hutchinson : Handel

Handle is a little on the flimsy side

Robert Kelsey : Grip and rip!

I love shimano reels since i was younger about 25 yeras now. I have had high end and low end. I prefer the lower end. They take a beating and always perform. This one is no different. Put it on a spare pole i had and broke it in right. I have around 50ish steelhead on it so far and couldn't be more pleased. Deffinetly a buy!

Henrik Neumann : Einfach eine leichtläufige Rolle

Eine richtig gute und günstige Rolle. Bin eigentlich Stradics gewohnt, aber diese Rolle steht ihnen in nichts nach. Habe sie als 500er zum Spoon angeln gekauft und dafür ist sie perfekt. Hatte gerade erst eine 2 Kg Forelle damit rausziehen dürfen. Und was soll ich sagen. Viel besser als gedacht. Auch wenn sie vielleicht nur 1-2 Jahre hält, ist sie ihr Geld wert! Sie dreht sich wunderbar leicht, vergleichbar mit meinen Stradics, eher noch einen Tick leichter. Da können Rollen ala Magic Trout etc. für den doppelten Preis, dieser Rolle, nicht mithalten.
Kauft sie euch und testet selbst!

sebastian vallejo : Muy bueno

Excelente producto, muy bien empacado y llega demasiado rápido, una maquina perfecta de shimano, su peso, sus características, y funcionamiento muy buenos.

Saltydog : Nice for brookies

Nice small reel for Brookes good deal

Luca : Efficiente

I’m fishing on a 1000 for trout.
Love everything about this reel.
All around great reel

Vladimir K : Good reel but binded up after a year

Caught a lot of good fish on this reel, but kind of expected it to last more than a year. I don't know if it's the seller or Shimano, but i've never had a reel die so soon on me.

Mac : Can't be beat for the money.

I have spent a lot of money on fishing gear over the years. Sure you can nitpick things about this reel but it would be just nitpicking. This is the best reel for the money out there. Buy it and you will be impressed.
