Shimano Stella SW 8000PGD & Ocea Jigger Natural Jerk Spin 6'4" Combo with Ocea EX8 PE4
A complete, ready-to-fish heavy jigging combo. Shimano’s flagship Stella SW spinning reel, an Ocea Jigger built to “control the jig at will”, and Ocea EX8 eight-strand PE braid come together for deep-water jigging and big pelagic work.
Key Features
HAGANE Body — A highly rigid metal body improves impact resistance and cuts body flex. Gear meshing stays precise when a big fish loads the reel.
HAGANE Gear (Cold Forged) — The drive gear teeth are formed by cold forging rather than cut, giving lasting durability and smoothness under heavy load.
Infinity Drive & Silent Drive — Infinity Drive improves winding torque by 26% for a lighter, smoother retrieve under load. Silent Drive removes worm shaft and drive gear play for quiet, consistent rotation.
Shimano Heatsink Drag with X Tough Drag — The Heatsink drag draws heat away from the spool, cutting spool surface temperature by up to 30%. Metal and carbon X Tough Drag washers support the spool top and bottom for smooth, stable drag.
X Shield & X Protect — X Shield gives IPX8-equivalent water resistance through seals on the body and side covers. X Protect uses a contact-type seal at the stopper bearing and line roller, keeping seawater out of the most vulnerable parts.
X Ship & Rigid Support Drag — X Ship’s large drive gear and two-point-supported pinion deliver light reeling under load. Rigid Support Drag reduces spool play for consistent drag delivery.
AR-C Spool — A special spool ring shape for trouble-free line management and exceptional casting performance.
Ocea Jigger Natural Jerk Action — Specialised for smooth jig action and slow lures. It gives the jig a wide sliding action and still produces a seductive swimming action in shallow water or when the bite is slow.
Spiral X Core & X Hi Power Blank — Spiral X-Core technology makes the blank light and strong enough to draw bites on the toughest days.
Titanium Frame / SiC Guides & CI4+ Reel Seat — Light, corrosion-resistant components keep the setup well balanced. The V-hold front grip gives a secure, comfortable hold when working the jig.
Ocea EX8 PE4 (8-Strand) — Premium Dyneema fibres woven with Shimano’s tuff cross construction make a thin, silky line with less than 1% elongation under load. You get excellent sensitivity and can fish deeper and in stronger current. Made in Japan.

Why It Works
Heavy jigging punishes gear, so every part of this combo is built to cope. The Stella SW’s rigid HAGANE body, cold-forged gears, and sealed X Shield and X Protect protection keep it smooth and watertight through repeated hard fights. The Heatsink drag keeps drag pressure consistent when a big fish runs. The Natural Jerk rod gives the jig a long sliding action, stays light and strong through a full day of working it, and keeps the angler comfortable. Ocea EX8 ties it together with a thin, low-stretch braid that transmits every touch at the jig and lets you fish deep with confidence.
