    So they are the same? Found one on clearance wasn’t sure if they made any changes. It will save me about $50 to buy a one year old one.

    Yes its the last one they have. They have a lot of the ci4+ in stock. Its marked way down so thats why I was wondering if they made any big changes to the reel.

    Yes, they did make changes to the current ci4+. Xship being the big change in the new model. It’s a great feature on a spinning reel. There are other changes as well. If you want a detailed explanation, go to shimanos site and you can compare 2 different reels at once.

    Ok thank you. Thats what I was looking for. Gander extended their reel trade in so I can get a ci4+ for $180 or ci4 for $150. It sounds like the x-ship will be worth the extra $30.

    I have 4 of the 2012-2013 edition CI4’s and absolutely love them, I dont like the feel of the new ones but I am used to mine.I really didnt like the bigger handle grip.
