Hi, can the shimano nasci 5000 be used for rock and surf fishing with 1-3oz sinkers and reeling the sinkers in using the reel only and not the lifting of the rod.

Will the reel be able to handle it or is it more a reel for light spinning

They use exactly the same gears; the same anti-reverse clutch and same main shaft.
Body and rotor are the same except for paint finish.
The Sedona uses a plastic bushing on one end iof the pinion gear wheras the Nasci uses a ball bearing.
Nasci's clutch is protected by a labyrinth style waterproof +rubber gasket as well as an o-ring on top of the rotor. Nasci's main gear bearings are proteceted by rubber gaskets.
The Sedona forgoes these protection features although I am pretty sure you could buy the Nasci parts and fit them to a Sedona.
Nasci's drag washers are carbon vs felt in the Sedona; you could upgrade your Sedona by buying the Nasci's washers.
How is the Nasci flimsier?
