The 2500H FD retrieves more line per turn: 82 cm at 6.2:1, compared with 69 cm at 5.2:1 for the 2500 FD. Both weigh 210 g, have 12.5 kg maximum drag and hold 150 m of 0.20 mm line. Choose between them by the line pickup you want, not by weight or capacity.
All three have a 5.2:1 ratio. The 1000 FD weighs 188 g, has 9.5 kg drag, holds 150 m at 0.14 mm and retrieves 60 cm. The 2500 FD weighs 210 g, has 12.5 kg drag, holds 150 m at 0.20 mm and retrieves 69 cm. The 3000 FD weighs 216 g, has 12.5 kg drag, holds 150 m at 0.23 mm and retrieves 75 cm. Increasing size gives more line pickup and capacity for thicker line, with more weight.
No monofilament backing is needed with the non-slip spool design, and every listed SG8 model includes an aluminium spare spool. This lets you load an alternative line on the spare spool rather than replacing the line on your working spool.
The SG8 is a spinning reel for lure fishing. The 2500H FD is explicitly described for hardbaits and softbaits targeting perch and zander. Its sealed carbon drag controls line release during a fight, while the available sizes let you choose a reel around your line requirements.
No. Exact weight, gear ratio, drag, line capacity and retrieve figures are supplied for the 1000 FD, 2500 FD, 2500H FD and 3000 FD only. The 3000H FD, 4000 FD and 4000H FD share the documented construction and spare spool, but their model codes alone do not establish those numerical specifications.

The Savage Gear SG8 is a front-drag (FD) spinning reel for lure fishing. Its sealed Friction Control drag uses carbon fibre washers for smooth, controlled resistance during the fight. A strong, stiff and lightweight Carbon Reinforced Composite (CRC) body and rotor support the reel under load without adding unnecessary weight.
The screw-in CNC aluminium handle provides a direct connection for retrieving lures. Stainless steel bearings, including two Japanese bearings, support reliable running under load, while DuraGrease provides lubrication. The non-slip spool design eliminates the need for monofilament backing. A T-shaped line clip holds the line when it is not in use, and an aluminium spare spool lets you prepare an alternative line setup. The reel also has a cone-shaped bail holder. The 1000 FD, 2500 FD, 2500H FD and 3000 FD have a semi-one-piece bail.
The family includes 1000 FD, 2500 FD, 2500H FD, 3000 FD, 3000H FD, 4000 FD and 4000H FD. Compare the documented specifications rather than assuming that every model has the same weight, drag or retrieve.
The compact 1000 FD weighs 188 g, has 9.5 kg maximum drag and a 5.2:1 gear ratio. Its line capacity is 150 m at 0.14 mm and its retrieve is 60 cm per handle turn. It is the lightest of the models with supplied weight figures.
The 2500 FD and 2500H FD both weigh 210 g, offer 12.5 kg maximum drag and hold 150 m of 0.20 mm line. The 2500 FD has a 5.2:1 ratio and retrieves 69 cm per turn. The 2500H FD has a 6.2:1 ratio and retrieves 82 cm per turn, taking up more line with each turn without increasing the stated weight. The 2500H FD is explicitly suited to hardbaits and softbaits for perch and zander.
The medium-sized 3000 FD weighs 216 g, has 12.5 kg maximum drag and a 5.2:1 ratio. It holds 150 m of 0.23 mm line and retrieves 75 cm per turn. Compared with the 2500 FD, it accommodates thicker line at the same stated length and takes up more line per turn, with a small weight increase.
The 3000H FD, 4000 FD and 4000H FD share the CRC construction, sealed carbon drag and included aluminium spare spool. Their exact gear ratios, weights, drag capacities and line capacities are not supplied here.
