The 2000S is specifically designed for light spinning and jigging for perch, with a weight of 198 g and 69 cm retrieval per turn. The 4000SH is intended for zander jigging on big rivers and offers 98 cm retrieval and 7.7 kg maximum drag. Choose between these uses first, then compare the intermediate sizes by capacity and retrieve.
For the 2000 and 2500 sizes, S versions have 5.2:1 gearing and SH versions have 6.2:1 gearing. Retrieval rises from 69 to 83 cm in size 2000 and from 73 to 87 cm in size 2500. The SH versions therefore take up more line per handle turn, while capacity and maximum drag stay the same within each size pair.
Both have 6.2:1 gearing, 96 cm retrieval and 5.2 kg maximum drag. The 3000SH weighs 225 g and holds 220 m of 0.28 mm mono or 0.29 mm braid. The 3000MSH weighs 232 g and holds 220 m of 0.21 mm mono or braid. Choose by the line diameter and capacity you need, not by retrieve speed, which is identical.
Yes. The shallow aluminium spools are intended for thin braided lines, and every model has a right/left convertible handle. Match your line diameter to the capacity listed for the individual model, then fit the handle on your preferred winding side.
All use the smooth Carbon Matrix™ front drag, but maximum drag differs. The 2000 models offer 3 kg, the 2500 and 3000 models 5.2 kg, and the 4000SH 7.7 kg. Compare the maximum drag separately from retrieve speed when choosing your model.

Abu Garcia Spike spinning reels are designed by professional anglers for freshwater lure fishing for perch and zander. Shallow aluminium spools suit thin braided lines, while the smooth-running mechanism and Carbon Matrix™ front drag provide smooth retrieval and controlled line release when playing fish.
A one-piece Durametal™ aluminium body provides a strong, rigid housing. A C6 Carbon Rotor and carbon handle arm form part of the weight-conscious construction. Seven stainless steel HPCR™ bearings plus one roller bearing support smooth rotation. The AMGearing™ system uses a computer-optimised gear design.
The handle can be fitted on the right or left, so you can choose your preferred winding side. All seven versions have a Green/Purple/Black finish.
The 2000S is specifically suited to light spinning and jigging for perch. Its 5.2:1 gearing retrieves 69 cm per turn. The 2000SH retrieves 83 cm with 6.2:1 gearing, taking up more line with each turn while retaining the same 3 kg maximum drag and line capacity.
The 2500S and 2500SH hold 170 m of 0.17 mm line and have 5.2 kg maximum drag. Choose the 2500S for 73 cm retrieval per turn or the 2500SH for 87 cm. Their listed weights are 215 g and 214 g respectively.
The 3000SH and 3000MSH both retrieve 96 cm per turn with 6.2:1 gearing and offer 5.2 kg maximum drag. Their main differences are capacity and weight: the 3000SH holds thicker line at the same 220 m length and weighs 225 g, compared with 232 g for the 3000MSH.
The 4000SH is specifically intended for zander jigging on big rivers and is also described for pike lure fishing. It combines 98 cm retrieval with 7.7 kg maximum drag and a listed weight of 239 g. Compare the exact specifications below rather than relying on size codes alone.
