davey buoy Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) lets get one thing straight... is this a reel your only gunna use for musky? or are you gunna use it for other species...? cause now it sounds like your looking for a MUSKY reel for 100 bucks that youll ONLY use a couple times a year...ONLY for musky... in your original post you were asking for a reel that can handle SOME musky but can be used for bass and pike the rest of the year... Mike I realize that there is not one reel that does all,just looking for something that will work a couple times a year and a bit more if I get the bug!That's all for now.

Raf Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) Have you tried looking for a used c3? you can save yourself a fair bit of coin. I think the last one I bought cost me $60 spooled with 80# line. Not only will the C4 be tougher to use, it'll likely break on some of the harder pulling baits. In my opinion, it's the perfect reel for someone just trying / casually into muskie fishing and at the very least, it will double as a excellent trolling reel for other species.
