The result, the \u003cem\u003eStella FK\u003c\/em\u003e, is a \u003cstrong\u003ereel packed with technical features\u003c\/strong\u003e that push it to the highest level of performance. Continuous development to show what is currently possible. For you as an angler, that means fishing with a reel for those who will accept nothing but the best in their hands. The drag, the gearing, the line management - all have been taken further. Improvements that make your fishing \u003cstrong\u003emore effective and more efficient\u003c\/strong\u003e, and that add to the enjoyment. Shimano calls this Infinity Evolution. Infinity can be read two ways: the endless pleasure of fishing with the reel, and Shimano's endless drive to keep improving the \u003cem\u003eStella\u003c\/em\u003e - a journey of innovation that never stops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInfinity Technologies for an Unforgettable Experience\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFishing a \u003cem\u003eShimano Stella FK\u003c\/em\u003e is already an unforgettable experience - a precise blend of high-end engineering and angling refinement. The \u003cem\u003eInfinity Technologies\u003c\/em\u003e take that experience even further. \u003cem\u003eInfinityXross\u003c\/em\u003e delivers an \u003cstrong\u003eeven more robust gear construction\u003c\/strong\u003e than the previous \u003cem\u003eHagane Gear\u003c\/em\u003e, meaning \u003cstrong\u003ean even longer service life\u003c\/strong\u003e even when the reel is subjected to the harshest conditions and the hardest-fighting fish. \u003cem\u003eInfinityLoop\u003c\/em\u003e introduces an \u003cstrong\u003eultra-slow spool oscillation\u003c\/strong\u003e, producing \u003cstrong\u003eimproved line lay\u003c\/strong\u003e and, with it, \u003cstrong\u003elonger and more precise casts\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003cem\u003eInfinityDrive\u003c\/em\u003e delivers \u003cstrong\u003eextraordinary power transmission\u003c\/strong\u003e, letting you crank hard-fighting fish in smoothly, even under maximum load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo Further Features for Greater Enjoyment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo additional features push the experience further still. The \u003cem\u003eAnti-Twist Fin\u003c\/em\u003e sits at the line roller and \u003cstrong\u003econtrols the pressure on the line as it is laid onto the spool\u003c\/strong\u003e. By keeping constant tension on the line, it improves line lay and prevents both loops and the line slipping under the spool. The second feature is the \u003cem\u003eDuracross\u003c\/em\u003e drag system, which delivers a \u003cstrong\u003enotably smoother line release\u003c\/strong\u003e while simultaneously offering \u003cstrong\u003egreater durability and hooking power\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnology Overview\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eStella FK\u003c\/em\u003e is \u003cstrong\u003eloaded with high-end technologies\u003c\/strong\u003e.
