GLOSSARY

CI4+

Light and rigid, Shimano’s new proprietary CI4+ – a carbon infused material – provides the base plat - form for Chronarch CI4+ baitcasting reels and Stradic CI4+ spinning reels. Due to its construction quali - ties, Shimano can build reels not only lighter and more compact than previous CI4 models, but are also even more sensitive to feel the lightest of bites. Using the reels for some saltwater action? No problem with CI4+. Being that carbon simply won’t rust, the reels offer even better corrosion resistance.
