Super smooth retrieve and butter smooth drag. Very lightweight. Have a ci4+ 2500 paired to a st Croix avid x 7' m.

You are correct. This has been replaced by the FL version. Still a really solid deal on a great reel.
This is the 2015 model (FK), there is a new 2019 model now (FL). The FL has micro gears, carbon drag, larger spool front to back, and other slight upgrades.
Even still, a 2015 Shimano is better than pretty much any reel out besides maybe Daiwa. And Shimanos rarely go on sale.

A bait feeder spinning reel like the okuma has the added bait feeder function, this is just a regular spinning reel that's high quality.
Until they run out of stock . I don't think Shimano is still making them . Odd there were no breaks on Christmas . Would have been the perfect time to clear up stock .
But don't pair with a crap rod, or you're just throwing away your money on a good reel.
