I don’t have the Eye Crosser, but I do have the Dragger 2. I use mine for dragging a football jig, and also big swimbaits.
To be honest, I haven’t used it much fishing swimbaits but I can say the fast action is accurate because I can set the hook on a football jig at 30 feet no problem.
I was almost in the same boat as you with Daiwa. Then I decided to try a JDM reel and now they are now my favorite reels. I actually have a new one waiting for me at home.
Have you tried a jerkbait or a big swimbait like a magdraft.
Like Forrest Gump, I’m not a smart man but I would suggest seeing if those two would work.
