Shimano Stradic Ci4+ FA Reel

The Shimano Stradic CI4+ FA reel is a multi-purpose angling tool designed with the dedicated precision angler in mind. Perfect for a range of uses, including drop-shotting and spinning, this reel is ultra-lightweight thanks to its CI4+ body construction. CI4+ was first developed by Shimano’s cycling division, who were looking for the perfect lightweight and durable material for their bicycle components. CI4+ was the result of this search and the material has been quickly snapped up by the fishing team who immediately saw its potential. CI4+ makes this Stradic FA reel unbelievably sensitive – perfect for the angler who likes to fish with finesse. Not only this, but CI4+ is uniquely corrosion proof. This reel will outlast you on the bank any day of the week!

Fitted with Shimano’s trademark A-RC spool, constructed from ultra-lightweight cold forged aluminium, this reel allows you to cast out to the horizons. However, where this reel really shows its skill is when you’ve got a fish on the end of the line. In many ways the Stradic CI4+ is a fish players dream. The Magnumlite CI4+ rotor is supported by six S-ARB ball bearings as well as one roller bearing, ensuring it has a silky smooth performance. X Ship gearing maximises the power you put through the handle, giving you the ultimate cranking ability enabling you to fish with confidence in even the more demanding of situations. Fitted with waterproof Rapid Fire, for super-fast drag adjustments, the Stradic CI4+ FA allows you to make minute adjustments – perfect for those anglers who fish with ultra-light lines.

The Stradic CI4+ FA comes in a universal 4000 size, making this an incredibly versatile reel for angling across the disciplines. With a fitted maintenance port, to keep this reel in tip-top condition, this is the perfect Shimano reel for the dedicated modern angler who demands more from their gear.
