2500's seem to balance better with most bass tackle.

2500 is best choise . You can still downsize(line size) or increase to a degree, withouit sacrificing performance, or having to use a heavier reel.

I want distance and go with the Stradic 4000 for the bigger spool.

Depends on the make of the reel. A Daiwa 2500 is nearly the same as the Shimano 3000.

Personally, I prefer the bigger reels because of the larger spool diameter and thus lower line twist (less turns per length).
