Hey Milo, welcome to Striped-Bass.Com ...

Looking at the picture, it looks to be the size of a 5500 SS, changed bail arangement, plastic or graphite controls - can't tell.... But certainly about time...

No mention on their website about it but that's not suprising. For some reason the tackle manu's tend to be behind on updating them...

the reel is all metal including the bail arms. it is a little bigger than the 5500SS
it holds 40yds more of 15 lb test
