The Abu Garcia Ambassadeur C3 is suitable for freshwater and saltwater fishing. It also has a centrifugal brake, which gives consistent brake pressure throughout the cast. What this means is that you are much less likely to get air knots or backlashes from the spool running faster than the line is being stripped. Anti-Reversing Function and Slippage ProtectionĪnti-reversing helps in your cranking as well as in your line retrieval. The Abu Garcia Ambassadeur C3 fishing Reel has one roller bearing which is attached with a gutter system. The gutter system helps in preventing slippage during a big fish dragging. The weight of the reel must be mentioned as it is only 10 oz due to its carbon matrix body, which is very low for a 4500/5500 sized saltwater reel.The reel is very durable with high quality construction and premium materials.On the other hand, the roller bearing stops the reversing function instantly. I was going through some of my Father-in-Law's old fishing equipment and came across an ABU Ambassadeur 5000 Sweedish made reel with the 348960 stamped on the bottom.This makes a big difference to muscle fatigue after a long days fishing. The dragging force of the reel is only 15 lbs, which is less than other alternate options. It was mounted on a Heddon Pal 6308 Mark IV 6' rod.
