Super User Master Bait'r Posted December 25, 2015 Super User Posted December 25, 2015 Eyeing a new spinning reel for my 7'1" MLXF Envee for next season, and I'm kind of suck between a few options. Torn between an older twin power MG 2500S and a Complex Ci4 of the same size, approximate vintage but with the HG gearing. I don't want to go any lighter (Rarenium etc) because of where the balance point in the rod is, but I don't have a problem with the extra weight in the twin power simply because it's a twin power. Also the Soare- is that just another twin power, and is any non-BB (Ci4) version the Japanese/MG internals? There is just about no information out on those darn reels. While I doubt I could go wrong with either, any thoughts or input from anyone as I weigh my options? Kind of torn here, but in the best kind of way. Main usage will be finesse weightless T-Rigs, tiny jig duty for things like the Ned rigs/ Mono Spins and smaller jerkbaits like the Trick Darter and 110 Jr. and I will be using 4kg Gliss (10# Smackdown if the Gliss doesn't measure up). Thanks in advance for helping in this first world problem. It's causing me considerable hand wringing. 1 Quote
