that is a very good reel. lots of line capacity and bait clicker makes it a great catfish reel.

I have the same setup.
Ambassador 6500 C3 with a 7ft ugly stik (CA 1101)

I've caught a lot of catfish with it.

I don't need anything better than ambassador, for $300.00 That is 3 6500's and maybe even a Tournement Choice rod to go with them!!!

Yeah you can't convince me that that 300 dollar setup will outfish a 6500c3 on an ugly stick. Made in Sweden 6500C3 $78 at academy the other day.

The torium is $99.00 on sale at academy. I was thinking of getting one and using offshore when I get a chance, and throw it out with the big bait in hope of hooking up a large cat the rest of the time.
