What baitcasters with bait alert, clickers?

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

I don't think the dis-engaging levelwinder is a disadvantage or a
advantage, I use the smaller Abu 4600 models, they seem to cast as well
as the other Abu's I have with disengaging levelwinders. I have one C3
that has two bearings added to the levelwinder and it does make a
difference...

I bought the Ambassadeur C4 5600. $56 I feel it'll be just right for
its intended purpose.
