To make a reel with peerless strength and power, you have to make some compromises, right? Wrong. The SG6 is made with a Carbon Reinforced Composite (CRC) body and rotor, which is designed to provide increased sturdiness and strength, but with a much lower weight, that standard graphite material. It can handle whatever extreme forces you throw at it, and it won’t weigh you down.

But it’s not all about strength. The SG6 is packed with other smart details such as a Braid-Ready spool, that eliminates the need for mono backing, the proprietary Dura Grease for smooth and long-lasting operation, an aluminum spool, screw-in diecast handle and T-shaped line clip for easier operation. This reel is going to get a big fan club.

Maintenance after fishing is very important, if you want your spinning reel to perform for many years in the harsh saltwater environment. The Savage Gear SG6 reels contain Dura Grease. This is Savage Gear’s unique, proprietary grease, developed especially for Savage Gear reels, that protects the gearing from corrosion and wear. The grease is steam resistant, water and saltwater resistant and operates between -30˚C to 160˚C, which should cover just about any fishing situation on planet Earth. It’s also biodegradable. With Dura Grease, the Savage Gear reels will perform at their best for longer.
