I am thinking about purchasing a 5600c4 mag reel.  My usual round reel is a 5500c3 and I love it because it is indestructable.  I use ambassadeur low profile reels alot because of the magnetic brakes.  But they don't seem to be as tough of a reel as my 5500c3.  I thought it would be great to have the toughness as well as the magnetic brakes.  I thought this might be a good real for my wife especially when we are trolling.  If anybody has experience with this reel I would greatly appreciate your input.  Thank you.

Just remember that another difference is the C4. It's a different gear ratio. Not as much power but great for burning baits. Very good reel.

If memory serves, the 5600 also has more line capacity. BTW, this would have been better posted in the tackle section, this topic is for items for sale. Tom

I have 3 5600 AL's...and MAYBE I'm a bit old fashioned...I love them
