The Shimano 22 Stella Infinity Evolution spinning reel represents a major advancement over its 2018 predecessor. Featuring the Infinity Xross gear design, this new model doubles the durability of previous versions. Its smooth performance is enhanced by several cutting-edge technologies: the Infinity Loop oscillation system minimises friction during line release, while the Infinity Drive system reduces friction between the main shaft and pinion gear, enabling effortless winding, even under heavy loads. Additionally, an anti-twist fin beneath the line roller prevents tangling during casts, and Dura Cross drag washers ensure a smoother line release during intense fights.To keep the reel lightweight yet strong, Shimano used magnesium alloy for the main frame and body cover. The 22 Stella is packed with Shimano’s top innovations, including Micro Module 2 gears, X-SHIP with Infinity Drive, Infinity Loop oscillation, X-Protect water resistance, Silent Drive noise reduction, AR-C spool design, G-Free body, Dura Cross drag washers, rigid support drag, SA-RB sealed bearings, and a one-piece bail wire. Together, these features provide unmatched performance and reliability for serious anglers.
