Nice looking reel! I have lost track of the Stradic models...is this the current of the CI4 range available in Oz? So, would you hazard a guess what species the first victim to this reel will be?
cheers

nice looking reel, i see that its still got that trademark kink in it, 3rd pic looks like someone grabed the spool and the back end of the reel and bent it.
no doubt its going to be a hot seller though as the price is very good.
jim, its the very latest, this is probably the first one on this forum.

Soon to be as far as I know. AFTA is literally around the corner so locals will get the new gear shortly after.
Bargain prices on older models too generally

Hi Jim, As Puple5ive says, yes, it is the latest model in the market.. i got it order from Singapore.
I check with BCF and Compleangler, they dont this new model yet but it is around $380 if it arrives to Australia.
I may sound crazy at this point, but im using this reel to target Jewfish :fish22: :a_goodjob:
