Description: Perfect when your fishing requires a quick retrieve. The C4 has undergone a makeover, but it still has all the characteristics that made it one of the most popular baitcast reels ever. Super-smooth, the C4 features 4 stainless-steel bearings, Carbon Matrix Drag, chemical nickel-coated levelwind system, six-pin centrifugal brake, and non-slip spool.

Pros: Smooth, reliable
Cons:

Technically this is classified as a freshwater product but I use mine in saltwater with no problems - I just wash it off after each use and keep it lubed. I use them mainly for trolling for Spanish, bonito and blues - it handles them all just fine, the 6.3:1 ratio gets to the boat quick. I like the thumb rest/line release mechinism set-up better on this model over the C3. The only part I'mleary about is the level wind - but I have to admit I've not had a problem with this model - just level winds in general.
