The 5601 and 6601 retrieve on the left, while the 4600, 5600 and 6600 retrieve on the right. Choose the handle side you want first, then compare capacity. The 5601 has size 5600 and the 6601 size 6600, so the final model digit does not represent a different reel size.
The 5600 and 5601 weigh 283 g and hold 220 m of 0.32 mm line. The 6600 and 6601 weigh 309 g, with capacities of 290 m at 0.32 mm and 310 m at 0.30 mm respectively. Choose the larger pair for more line reserve, accepting 26 g more weight. Compare the stated diameters before comparing the capacity figures.
Casting and trolling are explicitly supported for the 5600, 5601 and 6600, including larger hardbaits and softbaits. The 6601 is described for heavy artificial lures for pike, and the C4 family for large predator lures and jerkbaits. The centrifugal brake helps control the spool when casting, but no numerical casting-weight limit is supplied.
No. All five have 6.3:1 gearing, but the listed retrieve is 64 cm per turn for the 4600, 5601 and 6601, and 76 cm for the 5600 and 6600. Compare line pickup as well as handle side when choosing how much line you want to recover per handle turn.
The supplier explicitly lists the 4600, 5601 and 6601 as not pre-spooled and without a spare spool. Each has an aluminium spool, so fit your chosen line before fishing. Equivalent inclusion details are not supplied for the 5600 and 6600, so do not assume that line or a spare spool is included with those versions.

The Abu Garcia Ambassadeur C4 Round Reel family comprises round baitcasting reels for predator lure fishing. The C4 line is described for large lures and jerkbaits, with casting and trolling supported for the 5600, 5601 and 6600 models. A centrifugal casting brake controls the spool during the cast, while the Carbon Matrix™ drag controls line release under load.
The six-pin centrifugal brake helps control spool speed when casting. The synchronized level wind distributes line across the spool during retrieval. Four stainless steel ball bearings and one roller bearing support smooth operation, and the Duragear 2 gear system has a 6.3:1 ratio. Instant anti-reverse prevents backward handle rotation. The compact bent handle and drag star keep the controls close together, with the star providing drag adjustment. Maximum drag is 6.8 kg on every model. The supplied C4 design is midnight blue and gold.
Choose C4-5601 or C4-6601 for left-hand retrieval, and C4-4600, C4-5600 or C4-6600 for right-hand retrieval. The 5601 is listed as reel size 5600, and the 6601 as size 6600. The 5600 and 5601 weigh 283 g, compared with 309 g for the 6600 and 6601. The larger pair offers more line capacity at an extra 26 g. No reel weight is supplied for the 4600.
The 5600 and 5601 hold 220 m of 0.32 mm line. The 6600 is listed at 290 m of 0.32 mm, and the 6601 at 310 m of 0.30 mm. Compare capacity at the stated diameter, rather than treating these figures as equivalent. For capacity rated by line strength, the 4600 holds approximately 146 m of 12 lb mono or 142 m of 30 lb braid, the 5601 approximately 219 m of 12 lb mono or 215 m of 30 lb braid, and the 6601 approximately 293 m of 12 lb mono or 283 m of 30 lb braid. These are rounded metric conversions of the supplied yard ratings. The 4600 has the smallest capacity among those three strength-rated models.
Line retrieve per handle turn is 64 cm for the 4600, 5601 and 6601, and 76 cm for the 5600 and 6600. Choose by both handle side and listed retrieve, rather than assuming that the shared gear ratio means identical line pickup.
The 5600 and 6600 are described for casting and trolling larger jerkbaits, softbaits and wobblers for pike. The 5601 supports casting and trolling with hardbaits and softbaits, while the 6601 is described for pike fishing with heavy artificial lures. The shared C4 line also covers large predator lures, but no numerical casting-weight limit is supplied.
The 4600, 5601 and 6601 have aluminium spools and carbon-fibre star drags. These three versions are supplied without line and without a spare spool, so line must be fitted before fishing. The supplier explicitly lists freshwater use and Swedish origin for the 5601 and 6601, and Swedish origin for the 4600. No saltwater suitability is stated.
