  • We had our first look at the brand new Saragosa SW from Shimano. Curt talks through what is new in comparison to the old models and tries to ascertain whether this reel is worth your hard earned dollars!
    The old Saragosa had a bulletproof reputation, will the new SW A be better?
    If you want to learn more about the ins and outs of this reel, pick up the September addition of Western Angler Magazine and get into Curtis Waterman and Jason Warr's written review.
    Shimano says: The Saragosa SW has built an incredible reputation and the newly released 2020 SWA model takes it to the next level. Packed with upgrades to deliver great cranking power and unmatched durability, no other reel compares at this price point.
    RRP from $399 | Limited sizes available in-store from August.

    I put the 10K for surface crystal minnows and 18K for diving crystal minnows on trolling rods behind the sailboat and couldn't be happier - uluas, onos, and shibis on a regular basis! Lost the 10K overboard and had to dive in and retrieve it 15' underwater, opened her up and bone dry. Love these reels, absolute beasts.

    Good review. Thanks brother. FYI The first number in an IP rating is for dust ingress protection and the second digit is for water ingress protection. The character x is just a placeholder and means nothing. IP ratings have nothing to do with impact resistance unless you are talking about the molecules of dust and water literally impacting the reel. It sounded as if you were saying the reel is stronger from a structural standpoint if it carried an IPX rating and that is not true. It’s good to understand these ratings as I see more and more commercial applications advertising these ratings now. Previously I had only seen these ratings when specifying high end industrial electrical/mechanical components working as an engineer. That being said it’s important to understand what these numerical characters mean. In summary IP ratings explain the level of dust and water protection that an engineered product has. First numeric character after the characters “I” “P”is for dust. The next numeric character is for water. So in an IP65 rating the slot that the numeric character “6” occupies explains an engineered product’s dust ingress protection level. The second slot with the numeric character “5” denotes the level of water ingress protection. Here is a chart from ISO showing what each numerical character means for future reference. Thanks for the video.

    I bought 14000XD last week and then found that there is no clip to tie the line as it is available in other models, have noticed the clip is not available in any of the reels which are over $300 or $400. Is there any particular reasons for not providing a line tying clip on a reel ?

    • @Sam-xn7zp
      @Sam-xn7zp Před 2 lety

      Hi Pankaj, they don't put the the clip on them as it is another point for water to get inside the reel. Also as most of the reels used to cast lures a line clip would be another point to catch line and snap you off.

  • @Machster10
    @Machster10 Před 3 lety +1

    Ingress Protection (IP) ratings are for liquid resistance not waterproofing. An IP rating of 8 is "Protected against submersion (under conditions specified by the manufacturer)". However, this is not a submersible reel. You can't reel with it underwater because it will take in water. It's only for quick dunks not skishing. IP 8 also does not denote corrosion resistance, durability or longevity of a reel. Those are separate factors that vary from reel makes and models.

    • @westernanglermagazine
      @westernanglermagazine  Před 3 lety

      I actually quite like the knob that comes with the Saragosa, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, but a if you prefer using a power knob then no reason why you can't put one on. Personal preference I think, not a necessity but not going to hurt!

  • @madkent99
    @madkent99 Před 3 lety

    the x in IPX has nothing to do with impact resistance like you said. Just think about it, how does changing the line roller change design to give it IPX8 as you think. The line roller has nothing to do with water ingress into the body

      @@tommo2777 I ended up buying both and I like them both. The saragosa is smoother and better sealed. The slammer feels like a hot rod and I know people love the penn. I think the gosa will last longer. Their sizes are NOT relative. My saragosa 10000 is as small or smaller than my penn slammer 6500. The 10000 is not too big at all. The clicker on the gosa is also the best I’ve ever heard. The slammer has more drag, but I doubt you can hold all the drag that the gosa has to offer.

      Both good, stradic should lay line better. saragosa more easy to service your self.Id go a daiwa bg hq and save some money but you need a special tool to service them, or a spinfisher vi which is half the price water resistant brass gears on( bigger models) easy to service. cheers from Jake

    • @Sam-xn7zp
      @Sam-xn7zp Před 2 lety

      An extra bearing and a drag washer are the biggest internal differences. The gearing is identical. The spool is slightly different, being a little taller. Cosmetics and handle knob on the exterior. For the price difference you could spool a gosa with decent braid.

    • @westernanglermagazine

      This is a high speed reel so is probably more suited to cast and retrieve applications. That's not to say you can't use it for slow jigging, but a reel with a lower gear ratio is probably going to be a bit more suitable :)

    I hate to say it but... using actual 100 percent whale oil, will lubricate your reel far beyond any existing product and make your reel far beyond smooth, glide like a oil on a hot pan. Will make it feel and work better than any 1000 dollar reel.

      @@minicopilot1 I am not saying that they are bad reels, but they are over rated. They also suffer from poor quality control like most other reel manufacturers. My 6000 developed a knocking feel on the first outing. I opened it up and found that the brass bush in the osselating gear got stuck in the gear and was spinning on the frame (gear mount).
      The 8000 still have the annoying wobble in the rotor. I have since managed to balance the rotor, and that makes a huge difference.
      The 10 000 that is exactly the same reel as the 8000 except for the bigger spool and different main gear( lower gear ratio) has got horrible line lay. Shimano changed the gear ratio but kept the osselating speed the same. The wobbling rotor is less noticeable because of the lower speed.
      Al three of them have that geary feeling and are just not as smooth as my Daiwas. Unfortunately I can not post the photos that I took of the damaged bush and the 10 000's line lay. If you can find me on Facebook, send me a DM and I will forward the photos.
