Re: which shimano stradic

the aero ci4+ comes in 4.8:1(4000) and 6.2:1 (4000xg). they also have a wider spool = more line retrieved per turn This. Going by ratio only is fraught with disappointment. If I was after a surf spin stick the Aero would be the numero uno and only Shimano reel on my to buy list. As for ci4 strength...

Re: Netters at it again

You think they'd give 2 ***** a few seasons might be tough for recs because they went twice as hard a...

Re: A goodTackle shop please
