Willg3428 Posted April 16, 2020 Posted April 16, 2020 it’s a 75 heavy fast action and I’m just not 100% sure what reel to pair it with yet I’m thinking an 8.1.1 gear ratio or somewhere around there . Quote
Ogandrews Posted April 16, 2020 Posted April 16, 2020 Tranx 200 xg if you really want a tough reel. Super similar to a curado k just a little tougher, xg is 8.5.1. I don’t like really small reels for flipping like a lot of guys use, I prefer a bigger reel with a larger handle so you can get more power out of it. Tranx are indestructible, I know not everyone is a Shimano fan but that would be my first choice for a flipping reel. Quote
mrpao Posted April 16, 2020 Posted April 16, 2020 Bantam mgl would be a good choice. Tough and durable build. It should balance out on that longer rod nicely. 1 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted April 17, 2020 Super User Posted April 17, 2020 I have the Bantam and it would be a good reel for this. It's frame build and weight would be a great advantage with this heavier rod. Another choice and I have not fished it but if it acts as advertised..... Daiwa Tatula Elite Flip and Pitch. 1 Quote
