Abu Garcia Ambassadeur C3 Striper Special 6500 Round Reel

The Abu Garcia Ambassadeur C3 Striper Special 6500 is a right-hand round baitcast reel configured specifically for striped bass fishing. The C3-6500STPSPC22 combines the proven C3 platform with 6500-size line capacity, a 5.3:1 gear ratio and an extended handle designed to add leverage against hard-pulling fish.

Three stainless steel ball bearings plus one roller bearing support smooth operation, while the Carbon Matrix™ drag system provides up to 15 lb of drag pressure. A 6-pin centrifugal brake helps control casting, the synchronized level wind promotes even line lay, and the extended bent handle with power knob improves cranking leverage when fishing heavier striper presentations.
