I have decided to get a Lews TP.  It will be paired with a 7'3" MHF rod mainly used for jigs and plastics.  I am trying to decide between a 6.4:1 or the 7.1:1 ratio.  From what I have read the 7.1:1 most likely is a better ratio for what I am doing but I have never used that ratio before and want to ask advice before I pull the trigger in the next few days.  Thanks!

Get the 7.1

I have a 7.1 TP on a 7'3 LTB MH.spiinerbait/jig...its probably my favorite combo!

Another vote for 7.1 !

I prefer the faster reel myself but it's all personal preference between those two. A low ratio/IPT reel provides a substantial mechanical advantage for deep cranking, but beyond that the difference is more subtle.

The 7.1:1 has a higher IPT and gets you back to the boat faster for another cast.
