My first musky. Caught using the C4 6600
I'm a first time musky fisher and this was my first purchase. After spending many hours researching reels I decided the C4 6600 series was the one I was looking for. The ease of use of this reel is great. It fit my hands real well and was easy to handle on long days. It has smooth casting and a quick retrieve which I like when fishing certain lures. Other than a few rookie mistakes ( backlashes ) I have had no problems at all. I think this may be the best reel out there for the price! The guys I fish with all have the expensive fancy reels but when problems arise they always go back to the good ol Abu that's on the other pole. I would highly recommend this reel to any one. G. Olson
I would recommend this to a friend!

12lb bonito
I use the 4600 size loaded with 25lb power pro spectra and a 5ft topshot of 12lb floro on a 81/2' MH Penn rod for local island and coastal fishing. This reel has got the power and guts of a larger class with the castability of a low profile. So far the largest fish hooked and landed on this reel was a 12lb bonito on a 5/8oz krocodile. I've hooked and landed over 200 calico bass, numerous sandbass along with lots of shallow water rockfish and have yet to have the reel even give me a hint of a problem. It's been over 2yrs without service on the internal parts. I clean the spectra well after use, lube the reel after a good cleaning, dry it off and it's always been ready for the next trip. Great reel for the price. Sorry Shimano, I sold mine to get more Abu Garcias.
