Ci4 vs ci4+

[Sickle Hook]

Let me just say my experience has been with the the 1000f and the 1000fb. Both of these are sweet reels, with smooth drags. Both have crisp bails. Given the ci4+ is minutely lighter, but the ci4 has the lube port and the reverse switch and is as smooth as silk. Convince me that that the ci4+ is an upgrade. I love them both and have caught a ton of crappie on both.

Just a thought here. I wouldn't be overly enthusiastic about a "lube port". When you change the oil in your car, you change all the oil, right? Why would you just add lubrication to old, dirty lubrication in a fishing reel? Makes no sense to me. Other than that, I'm sure those are fine reels.
