On my 3.25s I have the shimano ultegra xtc ci4 5500s brilliant setup and don't need anything bigger than that, I can get to 100-120 yards easily with it. Obviously if you need to fish further get the 14000 bud

I've 3.25 torrix with Ci4 10000 ultegras ..I've also put my ultegra 5500's on the same rods and come up a little shorter but I don't use over 2.5 oz leads on the 5500's for some reason. I prefer the 10000's on this rod the balance feels better.

Think it's just down to personal preference mate, I use anything upto 3.5oz leads if needed most common lead for me is 2.5oz when I don't need to cast anything further than 80yards. Some of the waters I fish though are smaller and no need to cast more than 50/60 yards but I find the ci4s a good all rounder for my type of fishing

1st letter: X - power reel
2nd letter: T/S. T- carp reel (fresh water) S - surf reel (salt water)
3rd letter: A,B,C,D... (A-first generation, B-second generation, C- third generation and so on), so A,B and C is an old reels. Actual model is D.

And ci4 + go according to their own. A and B models is out to date. C is an actual model.
Are you sure?
