Apparently this one, the previous commenter values it more than his own wife.

so which one is better
THIS ONE
or Shimano Vanford 4000XGF 6.2:1 Spinning Reel | VF4000XGF
As they are two different sizes the answer is easy... both.

Heads up. There's two different versions of this reel, a high speed and lower speed gear ratio. Sierra doesn't lists it which one it is but I recieved the high speed gear ratio. Looking back on their website, there's two of them now with different product numbers but no details which one is which.

They also have the spinfishers live liner reels on sale for like 40% off. Those are also great reels if this one is a little over your budget still.

Good catch. If you add them to cart you can see the part code.

One is 5PXYC and the other is 5PXWG….however these part numbers seem to be internal part numbers and not generated by Penn. So this still doesn't help. If you want a specific one, I'd call and see if you can confirm gear ratio.

This one is the 5pxyc-01 model, I just bought it and their confirmation receipt says the model. I believe thie 5PXYC is the more premium upgraded version vs the standard 5PXWG one.

When I ordered earlier there was only one slammer on the website. Looking back on my order, it's was also a different internal product number than the current two. I'm guessing they must have realized there's two of them and changed it. Sometimes Sierra tends to have same product listed two times though so I don't know.

Not sure what you mean by "more premium upgraded version".

The 2500 comes in two gear ratio. 6.2:1 and 7.0:1.

The slammer lineup is already premium, sitting just below their Authority lineup.

Can do spinfisher live liner 4500 for $110.

Or go with the Shimano vanford 4000.

But don't be fooled by 2500 sized reels. These will hold up to stripers, sheeps, bluefish, etc. no problem.

Such good, tanky reels. My Slammer III 5500 has been through many Cape Cod summers, zero issues.

I still have 3 versions of the original green spinfisher and all still work fine.

As a beginner fisherman who's only bought complete rod/reel sets. What kind of a rod would you pair with this sized reel? Just trying to build my knowledge.

True. But slammer is sealed very nicely.

Is this exclusively for Saltwater fishing? Or good for Salmon and rivers too?

Looking to pick up a new hobby, would mostly be in lakes and the Savannah river. Not sure if this or the vanford would be better.
