so im looking for a small spinner to use purely as a light luring combo and im just wondering what these are like? or any other recommendations for around the 200 mark around the 4000-5000 size

How light are you looking at and what kind of luring do you plan on doing?
I have a 5000 Stradic 5000. Salina and a 5000 sustain personally the sustain is mostly used for hardbody's and plastics as it feels much more delicate the Salina is my high speed spinner targeting longtails and mackeral mainly use the Stradic for blades and bait fishing if this help try to stretch your budget to the sustain u wont regret it
i have the 4000 ci4 awesome reel round the $220mark casts a mile
Yeah just lite blades, little hardbodys, and small plastics, even the 4000 isn't too bad of a size, planning to run 12lb braid
that all sounds a bit too heavy for me, 2500 size in any of those reels would be fine. I would cut the 12lb braid down to 8lb braid / nanofil
Dad reckons fishing is 10% brains and 95% muscle, the rest is just good luck.
Iv got a 2500 spoiled with 6lb fins. If your planning on throwing small lures I would be sticking to a smaller sized reel lighter line. You will be much better distant from your casts and better control/feel of the light lures.
Iv stopped some fair sized fish on the little 2500
Yeah 2500 would be better. What rod is it going on?
umm its just a kato cork handle think its a 2-4kg
frontflip you dont wanna go stickin a 4000 ./ 5000 on that. Get a stradic or symetre 2500 and load her up with 6 or 8lb Berkley nanofil, are you chasing anything in particular?

just normal creek stuff, flatheads, grunter, barra, salmon etc
I would run with a 3000 size in the Shimano range for that sort of work. A bigger reel will need a more powerful rod to get the most out of it

Id go the 3000 size, ive got the stradic fj in the 3000, awesome reel. 5000 is to big, ive got the stradic fj 5000 and i use it in 100mts of water.
