Shimano Stradic CI4 Spinning Reel A dream for the lightweight finesse fisherman
Utilizing the new CI4 material for construction, Stradic CI4 is the ultimate in lightweight reels designed for the ultr-finesse angler using lightweight fluorocarbon, braided or monofilament lines. From drop-shotting to shakey heads and small texas rigs, this reel has you covered.
CI4 stands for Carbon Interfusion with the 4 referring to the number of electrons in the Carbon Fiber. It is over one and a half times stronger that our Norman XT-7 graphite and is over 20% lighter. Because it doesn’t contain metal, it is impervious to rust. So, as a result of its strength and weight, we can create an extremely lightweight reel with very precise tolerances.
