The 5600 has a right-hand retrieve and the 5601 a left-hand retrieve. Both have a 5.3:1 ratio, 65 cm retrieve per turn, 360 g weight and 7 kg maximum drag, so choose by the hand you use to wind rather than by speed or drag strength.
They are round baitcasting reels designed by Claes Claesson for predator fishing with jerkbaits. The brass frame and special brass main gear support the intended durable build. The 5600 is explicitly described for pike, making this family a practical choice for a pike jerkbait setup with a baitcasting rod.
The centrifugal brake controls spool rotation during casting. The Carbon Matrix drag controls line release under load and is rated to a maximum of 7 kg. These serve separate jobs, so the casting brake is for spool control on the cast, not for setting resistance during the fight.
Both models have a stated capacity of 215 m at 0.36 mm. For the 5601, this rating is explicitly given for monofilament and braid, and it is supplied without line or a spare spool. You need to choose and spool your line separately before using the 5601.

The Ambassadeur Svartzonker is a Swedish-made special-edition round baitcasting reel designed by Claes Claesson for predator anglers fishing jerkbaits. Its brass frame and special brass main gear support the durable construction intended for this style of lure fishing.
The centrifugal casting brake controls spool rotation during the cast, while the synchronized level wind distributes line across the spool during retrieval. The Carbon Matrix drag system controls line release under load, with a maximum drag of 7 kg. Both models have a 5.3:1 gear ratio and retrieve 65 cm per handle turn, useful for picking up slack between jerks. A straight 80 mm aluminium handle provides the grip for winding.
Choose the 5600 if you wind with your right hand or the 5601 if you wind with your left. Both weigh 360 g, have one bearing and a stated line capacity of 215 m at 0.36 mm. The retrieve hand, rather than a difference in gearing or drag strength, is the main choice between them.
The 5600 is explicitly described for pike fishing with artificial lures, particularly jerkbaits, and has a black finish. The 5601 is listed for freshwater use in the 5000 reel-size class. It has an aluminium spool and a star-adjusted carbon-fibre drag. Its capacity is specified as 215 m at 0.36 mm for both monofilament and braid. The 5601 is supplied without line or a spare spool, so select your line separately before fishing.
