Bostonstronggggg Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 What lures are high ratios good for? I assume not cranking... Quote
Ozark_Basser Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Anything where you need to take up slack quickly. Bottom contact baits. I use high gears for everything except deep cranking. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted April 18, 2015 Super User Posted April 18, 2015 Frogs, pitchin/flippin', buzzbaits. Also good for burning spinnerbaits and lipless cranks. Quote
Super User F14A-B Posted April 18, 2015 Super User Posted April 18, 2015 What ratio do you prefer for crankbaits? 5.0:1 or 5.5:1 Quote
JLeon77 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 5:4:1 for deep cranks or slow rolling...6:4:1 works fine as well. High speed reels will wear you out reeling in moving baits with lots of resistance. I use a revo rocket and other high speeds for jigs and flipping/pitching, gets the bait back fast for another pitch. Quote
