Finesse reel opinions

[ScowardNJ]

I wanted to put together a tits up deep water walleye jigging set up so I picked up a Stradic CI4 2500 on St. Croix LT XF rod this spring..8# braid- It's pretty sweet, light and smooth and casts a mile. My buddy hooked me up with a 3000 sized spool which is compatible with the reel. I put 10#sufix on it and BT'd fluke in the bay with my walleye rod and it had no problem sticking legal sized fluke. Solid drag! It's worth a look.
