My Mood: Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Shimano Stella SW10000PG for popping? I am going to start popping. Very newbie in popping and going finalise my order for the '08 model today. I know this reel is designed for bottom or jigging. The gear ratio of 4.8 doesnt seem too low but is it suitable for popping or I need SW10000XG for that? |

Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Re: Shimano Stella SW10000PG for popping? Hi, I would recommend the SW10000XG, you really need the faster retreive, allows you to work poppers and stickbaits more effectively. Though I do have a stella 16000PG F(5.0 gears ratio), that I use to work Orion stickbaits, since high speed retrival is not nesseccary with these baits. It's alot more work and you tire faster with the slower retrieve rate. Since your new to the sport, to throughly enjoy your experience, practice, lift weights, and try to get with someone who knows the ins and outs of popping. Enjoy! ED |
