Description

The Shimano Socorro SW 8000 spinning fishing reel is about as basic a saltwater reel as you can get that is built with quality components.

The basics of the reel are the strong and reliable Hagane gearing combined with Shimano’s X-Ship technology for a smooth retrieve and cross carbon drag washers with between 22 and 27 lbs of drag.

If you are looking to purchase a rugged but basic spinning reel that will get the job done and you do not need a model larger than a 10,000, then the Shimano Socorro SW 8000 fishing reel might be a good option for you.

The Shimano Socorro SW 8000 fishing reel is smooth to retrieve and when a smaller fish was snapped up by a 5″ shark the drag performed well under the load.

The Shimano Socorro SW 8000 fishing reel covers all big fish applications from inshore to offshore, surf to pier, kayak to boat and saltwater to freshwater. Shimano Socorro is the new kid on the block and is proving itself in the harsh Australian environment. Shimano Socorro has proven again and again to be worth its very affordable price point.

This is my second socorro .I have used multiple times over the past few months after purchase for onshore surf fishing. So far no issues. I have the 10000 model and spooled with 50lb braid. I have used this for both light and heavy presentation. It held up and preformed extremely well. No change in smoothness or stability. The reel is very light and comfortable but yet feels very strong and stable. One thing I want to mention is that handle in not a screw in like the higher end model Shimano reels. It is an older style where the handle shaft goes through the reel and locked in with a screw on the reel cap. Handle also doesn't fold and the line capacity is a little slim. I suggest backing this reel with Braid line and topping it with either mono or flouro. Despite that this reel is AWESOME!

Heavy duty for salt water. Feels really solid.I think it might be a little overkill for that but I'd rather it be too large than too small. I would buy this again.
