I have only heard a few comments about the D5 Garcia's, but to be honest the things I've heard is all negative. I picked one up and checked it out at a local bait store and it just felt cheap to me. I do however really like the C5 Mag's and have given mine a heck of a workout the last couple years.

I don't like the clicker where it is, too easy to bump on on top like that. The 5600 disengages the levelwind on the cast which I do not like. They have come out with a new d series with 6.3to1 retrieve. If you like it buy it, it is really up to ones taste, I have not heard of them breaking.
