The Sahara front drag reel range combines modern design, with many of Shimano's best technical features.

The Sahara FJ is perfect for many freshwater and in-shore saltwater methods, this is a classy mid-priced reel offering durable performance and versatility.

One look tells you the Sahara is a reel that means business. The classy look, is more than matched by the impressive range of technology, in a combination that belies the remarkably affordable price. Featuring the classic black and gold colors, the Shimano Sahara FJ is whisper quiet, ultra-smooth and it you prefer to play fish by back winding, there is an anti-reverse facility to complement the slick front drag.

With a large range of model options available, the Sahara completely redefines reels in this price bracket and never fails to impress.

The first thing you’ll notice when using the Sahara is how smooth, quiet and deceptively powerful it is when rotating, especially when playing fish under pressure. This is due to a combination of the Hagane Gear, the X-Ship and Silent Drive technologies. This technical trilogy is usually found on Shimano’s higher priced reels, and is an unexpected bonus for all Sahara owners.

Use the reel on even the lightest lure rods and you’ll appreciate the balance of the G-Free body. Place the largest 5000 size on a heavy lure, or feeder rod and you’ll appreciate the extra strength of the direct screw in handle and smooth casting performance of the AR-C spool with Varispeed II oscillation.

For light and medium Spinning lure, Float and Feeder fishing the mid-sized 2000, 2500 and 3000 are a delight to use. The 4000 is a great heavy lure and mid-range feeder reel and the 5000 is a powerhouse that inspires confidence.

Shimano Technologies

Varispeed and the latest version called Varispeed II oscillation system moves with two variable speeds to lay the line flat and smooth onto the spool. This provides trouble free, longer distant casts.

AR-C Spool is a patented spool design with an angled spool lip. This design enables the line to leave the spool with less friction and in smaller coils resulting in longer more accurate casts. ARC spools are backlash and wind knots when using braid.
