Choose the 60 for boat fishing or short-distance surfcasting. It weighs 400 g, compared with 600 g for the 70 and 620 g for the 80. The manufacturer recommends the 70 and 80 for long-distance surfcasting, so those are the beach-distance options within the family.
Both have a 4.1:1 gear ratio and are intended for distance surfcasting. The 80 retrieves 81 cm per turn and offers 8 kg maximum drag, versus 68 cm and 7 kg on the 70, but weighs 20 g more. Capacity is 320 m at 0.40 mm on the 80 and 340 m at 0.35 mm on the 70, so compare both line length and diameter.
No initial spooling is needed because every model comes loaded with monofilament. The listed m/mm figures are spool-capacity ratings, not a separately stated diameter or length for the supplied line, so use them to compare spool capacity rather than to identify the factory-loaded mono.
Yes, all three models support right- or left-hand retrieve. The handle can be fitted on either side, so choose the model by its fishing use and specifications rather than by a fixed handle side.

These front-drag spinning reels are aimed at newcomers looking for an affordable setup for sea fishing from boat or beach. Each reel comes loaded with monofilament, so there is no need to spool it before the first outing. Choose the 60 for boat fishing or short-distance surfcasting, or the 70 and 80 for long-distance surfcasting.
The corrosion-resistant graphite body and handle keep weight down while providing durability for saltwater use. A stainless steel ball bearing supports a smooth retrieve. The graphite spool carries the supplied mono, and the handle can be fitted for right- or left-hand retrieve. All three models have Multi-Stop anti-reverse. Shakespeare recommends pairing the reels with its Salt rod range.
A multi-disk front drag with felt drag material provides adjustable resistance during the fight. Maximum drag rises from 6 kg on the 60 to 7 kg on the 70 and 8 kg on the 80, so the larger models offer a higher stated drag limit.
The model numbers 60, 70 and 80 correspond to the manufacturer's 6000, 7000 and 8000 sizes. The 60 is the lightest option and retrieves the most line per handle turn. The 70 and 80 are intended for longer beach casts but weigh more. Between those two, the 80 offers more drag and a faster retrieve for 20 g of extra weight. Compare capacity at the stated line diameter, not just the metre figure.
Model | Gear ratio | Weight | Mono capacity | Retrieve per turn | Max drag |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
60 | 5.1:1 | 400 g | 300 m at 0.32 mm | 89 cm | 6 kg |
70 | 4.1:1 | 600 g | 340 m at 0.35 mm | 68 cm | 7 kg |
80 | 4.1:1 | 620 g | 320 m at 0.40 mm | 81 cm | 8 kg |
The supplier lists cod, halibut, coalfish, wolffish, ling, tusk and redfish for all three models. Haddock is also listed for the 60, black bass for the 70 and tuna for the 80. For choosing within this family, the manufacturer's boat-versus-surfcasting guidance and the specifications above provide the clearest distinction.
