I have never understood the Garcia numbering system. Here is a pic of one of the smaller Ambassadeurs. I have quite a few of these too. The requirement is the Flipping switch. This is the only pic I found with something to reference the size.
These pics are from Fleabay. I only grab new or spotless examples. The 1021 is bigger than the LITE, and the 1022 is the same as the 1021, but much wider. It holds a lot of line. For inshore bottom fishing I usually use 20 lb on the 1021 and 1022 but will go as low as 12 or 14lb on the LITE if I am after Fluke.
