CheckedOut Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 which of the following sounds the best. I just picked up a new rod for frogs and heavy applications. I have 2 reels to choose from to put on it. I know gear ratio should be higher, however what I have is Daiwa Tat at 6.3:1 and a pq 6.4:1. which one would you use for cranking and which one would you use for frogging\heavy. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted February 6, 2015 Super User Posted February 6, 2015 If you don't have a choice, either one. If you do have a choice, neither one. One's too fast & the other's too slow. A-Jay 2 Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted February 6, 2015 Super User Posted February 6, 2015 I like my tatula for frogging or general heavy cover fishing, they have a lot to grab onto when your trying to horse out that trophy bass! Although you couldn't go wrong with a Pro Qualifier, try both and see which you like better for the application Quote
Super User buzzed bait Posted February 6, 2015 Super User Posted February 6, 2015 neither of them are "wrong" for those applications. were it me though, i would use the tatula for frogs (i had a few and used a 6.3:1 for frogs JUST FINE). had a pq quite a while back, but used it more for plastics and jigs, though i'm sure it would suit you fine for cranking. you can always slow down your retrieve while deep cranking with a 6.4:1 as said above, you can always try them both and determine which you like better.

Super User lmbfisherman Posted February 6, 2015 Super User Posted February 6, 2015 Both are the same IPT (26"). So it really doesn't matter. 1 Quote
