Choose SP2000 for the lightest option at 170 g and light trout, perch or chub spinning. SP2500MS weighs 184 g for light to medium spinning. SP3000MS weighs 187 g and is described for zander and larger perch. SP3500MS weighs 193 g and offers more capacity for thicker line for medium to heavy zander and pike spinning. Retrieve increases from 64 to 83, 89 and 99 cm per turn respectively, so compare both retrieve and capacity for your setup.
Both line types are supported, but the reels are not pre-spooled. Rocket line management and the Rocket spool lip design support line control during use and casting. Braid capacities are 135 m/0.12 mm for SP2000, 125 m/0.15 mm for SP2500MS, 130 m/0.17 mm for SP3000MS and 135 m/0.20 mm for SP3500MS. Use the model-specific mono or braid capacity to select your own line.
Yes, every model is specified with a right/left handle position, so you can choose the side you prefer to wind with. All four also have always-on Instant Anti-Reverse, which prevents backward handle movement.
The Carbon Matrix carbon-fibre front drag provides smooth, consistent pressure throughout its adjustment range, helping control the load on fine line during a fight. The low-inertia V-Rotor supports smooth starts during sensitive presentations. The family is described for light finesse lures with the flexibility to cast heavier lures, so select the reel size and capacity for the line you intend to use.
Pure Fishing specifies freshwater use for all four models. The stainless steel HPCR bearings provide increased corrosion protection, but that does not establish saltwater suitability. If saltwater use is essential, choose a reel with an explicit saltwater-use specification.

The Abu Garcia Zenon X is a freshwater spinning reel for fishing light finesse lures while retaining the flexibility to cast heavier lures when needed. Its one-piece asymmetrical X-Cräftic aluminium body provides a compact, balanced platform. The four sizes weigh 170 to 193 g, so you can choose line capacity and retrieve speed without moving to a substantially heavier reel.
The compact V-Rotor reduces rotor weight and start-up inertia, helping the reel start smoothly during sensitive lure presentations. The V-Spool design and lightweight Air-Fin aluminium spool form part of the compact construction. An aircraft-grade aluminium main shaft supports the assembly.
Nine stainless steel HPCR bearings plus one roller bearing provide corrosion protection and smooth running. Precision-machined AMG-2 gears are designed for smoothness and durability, while the computer-optimised gear design supports efficient winding. All versions have a 6.2:1 gear ratio, but their line retrieve per turn differs.
The front-mounted Carbon Matrix drag uses carbon fibre to deliver smooth, consistent pressure across its adjustment range. This matters when controlling a fish on fine line. Always-on Instant Anti-Reverse prevents backward handle movement.
Rocket line management improves control of different line types, and the Rocket spool lip design controls line as it leaves the spool during a cast. Each model has an aluminium spool, can be used with the handle on either side and is supplied without line. Choose your own monofilament or braid using the capacity figures for the relevant size. Pure Fishing specifies freshwater use, so corrosion-resistant bearings should not be taken as a saltwater-use rating.

SP2000 is the lightest option and is described for ultralight to light spinning for trout, perch and chub. Its shorter retrieve takes in less line with each turn. SP2500MS offers light to medium spinning versatility with a longer retrieve and only 14 g more weight. SP3000MS adds another 6 cm of retrieve per turn for just 3 g more weight and is described for zander and larger perch with sensitive presentations. SP3500MS has the longest retrieve and more capacity for thicker line, with medium to heavy freshwater spinning for zander and pike among its stated uses. It weighs 23 g more than SP2000. Compare capacity at the same line diameter rather than treating the size number as a direct measure of how much of every line will fit.
