I just got mine in today I got the 782S in and so far I love it everyone complains about the wraps but on mine they are great. It balances really well with my stella C3000XG it feels a lot softer then expected it feels like my St. Croix legends elite med lite but still works jerk baits no problem. I...

Will the Stella c3000xg main gear work in a stella 2500hgs??

Will a spool from the stella 3000FE fit the 2500FE?

Has anyone used one yet?

Shimano added another addition to the vanquish it looks really nice I don't really understand why it's more expensive though? Anyone know more about it??

Would you be able to swap the main gear and pinion gear from the stella FI to the stella FE? Has anyone tried it with the 2500 size?

This reel would be perfect for using 1-3 pound nano fil or 2-3lb suffix nano braid honestly using braids that thin this little reel sounds like it will be a lot of fun

Has anyone used the new essence C3000M? What are your thoughts on it and how does it perform?

The new sustain looks like it's going to be good to!

I'm looking to get another Stella for my gloomis sjr721glx I don't know if I should get the c2500hgs or the 2500s? And suggestions??

I would love to see the vanquish come over here. For the extra money you would have to spend I feel it will be a big seller due to its very smooth light rotation and for the bass market it will be probably be a high seller

They are for braid so you can tie the braid directly to the spool that's what I use them for on my spinning reels.

I would go with the c2500XGS for the fact it comes with a 50mm handle to me it helps add more power and the extra line retrieve helps in more situations IMO. I have it and I liked it over the C2500HGS Iuse it for trout bass and panfish.

I have a Stella c2500hgs and a vanquish c2500xgs I always see myself picking my vanquish up it's extremely smooth has a lot of power and is very versatile. You won't regret buying one
