2023 Sephia SS C3000SDHHG

Sephia SS uses a shallow spool for each model. The specifications are perfect for egging, as it can wrap PE0.8 for 150m. Since there is no need for adjustment with the bobbin thread, etc., it ensures a light feeling of use while eliminating unnecessary troubles.

It is well suited for everything from technical games using thin lines to power games like aiming for large red monsters on the rocks and tip runs on boats. Supports a wide range of egging games.

The basic action of eging is to swing the rod wide and dart the egi. At that time, many anglers prefer a well-balanced double handle, which is less likely to cause unintentional rotation due to its own weight, since the rod is operated by removing the hand from the reel handle. Therefore, each SEPHIA SS model has a double handle specification. The double handle also has the advantage of making it easier to grasp the knob even in the blind.

On the other hand, for anglers who want to use it more lightly, we recommend the single handle model, which has an advantage in terms of weight.

SEPHIA SS will respond to all kinds of egging styles with a complete lineup.

The material for the handle knob of SEPHIA SS is EVA for both single and double models. This allows you to grip the knob firmly and supports more reliable steering operation. Furthermore, the EVA shape is designed to fit your fingers, so you can hold the knob naturally without feeling uncomfortable.

Whether it's when lightly grasping the knob when collecting a line slug, in situations where a high load is applied during a fight with a large bluefin squid, or when delicate operation is required such as taking a hit during the fall of an egi, the egging game is Achieves a comfortable operating feel in all situations.

The new SEPHIA SS uses a common design theme for both the reel and rod. Designed to create a high sense of unity by combining the two. The coloring is also a new subdued dark red, expressing a sense of quality that goes beyond the grade.

In addition, the combination of SEPHIA SS reel and rod should be able to experience the benefits of Shimano's advanced technology, not only in terms of the uniformity of the design, but also in terms of the total balance of the egging tackle.

It not only provides the joy of ownership to the angler who holds it in their hands, but also provides operability, security, and satisfaction that transcends its class in actual combat. We want you to experience the advanced quality of SEPHIA SS with your own hands.

My impression of the SEPHIA SS is that it is an excellent reel with no complaints whatsoever. The strength and drag performance are also perfect. And above all, its light weight is advantageous in every aspect. When it comes to egging, the lighter weight of the reel is directly linked to the ease of operation, so having a light reel is a big advantage. The balance when combined with the SEPHIA SS rod is also very good, and I get the impression that the good parts of the rod and reel are brought out and the synergistic effect is increasing. In addition, the design is very sophisticated and it is a joy to own. Actually, this point is a very important part. Like the rod, the reel has a gradation color scheme, and by combining them, you can get a unified design.

The size is C3000S, which is the easiest size to use with egging. This size only weighs about 200g, and yet it has a perfect level of strength. The gear ratio is high gear and normal gear, and there is a single handle and double handle for each, so you can choose according to your fishing style.

I often choose a single handle because I want to fish as light and delicately as possible. I think the double handle is easy to use for beginners who are not very familiar with egging.

Like the rod, the quality exceeds the price, so this reel is recommended for all anglers, from advanced to beginners.

The SEPHIA SS reel is a model that realizes excellent cost performance and incorporates plenty of technology that is also used in higher-end models. I usually use a variety of reels, from high-end models to middle-class to popular models, and I feel that the Sephia SS is a really well-made reel for egging. Also, the design and coloring are sophisticated, and the matching with the Sephia SS rod is great.

In terms of functionality, the benefits of the newly installed Micro Module Gear II and Silent Drive are tremendous, and you can feel that the feeling when retrieving is greatly improved compared to the previous model. Once you touch it, I think everyone will be surprised at how light it feels. Furthermore, X-protection and long stroke spool are also adopted, which makes me worry that it will threaten the existence of higher-end models.

Even so, the weight of the single handle is approximately 190g, so anglers of all levels will not feel dissatisfied. I'm very satisfied with this versatile egging reel.

There are two gear ratios to choose from: normal gear and high gear, so use the normal gear ratio when fishing for nervous squid in the spring or when you want to attract squid by limiting the distance it travels, and the gear ratio when you want to catch highly active squid in the fall at a good tempo or use the line when fishing for strong winds. If you want to quickly wind up the thread dandruff, choose high gear.

The SEPHIA SS reel can threaten the hierarchy of Shimano reels, and we want you to experience its high performance.
