What baitcasters with bait alert, clickers?
 

Hi Would like to know of some baitcasters that have a clicking feature
when the line is being pulled by a fish. Thanks

Haven't seen anything like that since I inherited my grandads old level wind
reel. That thing is a monster to cast too.

Looking at that, and then watching an old show one late night on TV leads me
to believe that us modern anglers have it too easy. I would feel bad about
complaining of my equipment these days... LOL

Hi all, I just picked up a new Abu Garcia amBASSadeur 5601 C4.

So far I'm very happy with it. It has to be one of the best values out
there and I'm really quite impressed at how well it casts. This is my
first Abu Garcia reel, been using Shimano Curado reels and one of the
things I noticed about the Abu Garcia is the line guide stays engaged
on the casts. This makes the reel very quite on hard long casts and
seems to add to the distance. I have mine spooled with 14 Lb Ironsilk
and this + the engaged line guide makes for one smooth reel.

Definitely a thumbs up :-) Besides, it looks cool too.

Hope this helps, DC

How can the reel make longer casts and be quieter with the levelwind
engaged during the cast? You have more parts moving then..

I saw the Ambassadeur C4 5600 does seem like a good reel. I didnt see
any Brownings. Going to go to a Gander Mountain today and look at what
they have. They accept Dick's coupon. Thanks for the recommendations.

Hi all, yes more moving parts but maybe less drag. My best guess on
this is when you start to use bigger baitcaster reels with wider
spools and thicker higher test line there comes a point where more
drag is caused by the line going out at an angle across a non moving
line guide then is caused by the extra moving parts needed to keep the
guide moving.

The 5601 C4 holds a bit of line (12 x 205) Perhaps reels of this size
and bigger start to work better if the line guide moves on the casts.

Later, DC
