Did abu drop the 4600?

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Seems like they have dropped it from the line up- can’t find them on any site.

I saw them on clearance at BPS last year. It's a shame, grew up using the C3, still used a fully upgraded one for deep cranks up till about a year ago. I'm sure ebay has plenty of them, and dadsoletackle.com sells the super tune kits for most any Abu round reel.

Looks to me that it was dropped as well. Either they outright discontinued the 4600 or the C3 and C4 line of reels is being revamped and a new model will be available at some point. Usually when Abu revamps the C3 or C4 lines it's nothing more than a color change.
