Ross, the TE is $375 reel unless you can find one Back Beach is unloading to pay for his SaltigaZ habit.. You may be confusing it with a plain Calcutta, a good reel in its own right and probably stronger than a 6500, but with only 1/2 the stopping power of a TE. The TE is probably close in power to a 7000 but in a smaller lighter package. The 7000 will hold more line, however.
