The S models (2000S, 2500S) have a standard 5.2:1 gear ratio for slower, more powerful retrieval, while the SH models (2500SH, 3000SH, 4000SH) feature a higher 6.2:1 gear ratio for faster line pickup. The 2500S and 2500SH share the same weight and spool capacity but differ in retrieve speed (73 cm vs 87 cm per turn).
The 2000S is the lightest model at 219 g and ideal for light spinning and jigging for perch. If you need more versatility or fish slightly heavier setups, the 2500S or 2500SH are excellent choices, offering more drag power (5.2 kg vs 3 kg) while remaining compact at 240 g.
The 4000SH is designed specifically for zander fishing on big rivers and canals. It offers the highest drag at 7.7 kg, the largest line capacity (0.285 mm/220 m), and the fastest retrieve at 98 cm per crank turn, giving you the power and speed needed for strong zander in flowing water.
Yes, all Spike S models feature shallow spools specifically designed for thin braided lines. The shallow spool design means you can spool braid directly without needing excessive mono backing, ensuring better line lay and casting performance.
All five Spike S models are equipped with 6+1 stainless steel bearings (six ball bearings plus one roller bearing), providing smooth rotation and reliable performance across the entire range.

The Abu Garcia Spike S is a dependable spinning reel series built specifically for predator fishing, offering smooth operation, a waterproof drag system, and a robust integral body across five size options.
The Spike S features a tough DuraMetal™ integral body that provides rigidity and durability. This one-piece construction minimises flex under load and keeps internal components aligned for consistent performance, whether jigging for perch or cranking lures through current for zander.
All models are equipped with a Water Shield carbon matrix drag that delivers smooth, reliable stopping power. Max drag ranges from 3 kg on the compact 2000S up to 7.7 kg on the 4000SH, covering light finesse tactics through to heavier zander applications on big rivers and canals.
Every reel in the range comes with a shallow spool, ideal for spooling thin braided lines without excessive backing. This design ensures optimal line lay and casting performance with modern PE lines.
The silent oscillating COG design provides smooth, even line lay across the spool, reducing noise and vibration during retrieval. Combined with 6+1 stainless steel bearings, the result is a silky-smooth rotation.
The range covers five models: the 2000S (219 g, 5.2:1 ratio) for light perch spinning, the 2500S and 2500SH (both 240 g, in 5.2:1 and 6.2:1 ratios) as versatile mid-range options, the 3000SH (261 g, 6.2:1) for heavier perch and lighter zander work, and the 4000SH (266 g, 6.2:1, 7.7 kg drag) for zander on large waterways. All models feature an aluminium handle with a high-density EVA knob and instant anti-reverse.
