Wyatt Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Does anyone know some casting reels that come in options good for cranking? Like a 5:1 ratio? Thanks, Wyatt Quote

Super User Dwight Hottle Posted March 29, 2021 Super User Posted March 29, 2021 Any Shimano PG model. Some of the PG models are only available as JDM purchases like the bantam MGL 150PG. Quote

Eric 26 Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 First off look up “beginner crank bait questions” asked a couple of hours ago. If none of those options appeal to you I’m using a Revo X in 5.4:1 and a Kast King royal legend 2 in 5.3:1 because they were the only low ratio left handed models I could find. Revo right at $99.00 Kast King under $40.00 shipped to the house. Would not recommend the KK for anything other than small/ medium cranks and bass? Quote
Wyatt Posted March 30, 2021 Author Posted March 30, 2021 Thanks all for the helpful suggestions! Quote
