Re: Gear ratio
It def all depends on the brand/model reels and how they are designed. I've tried the Avet JX and LX in the 6.0:1 and hated them because they didn't have the balls as the lower ratio counter parts. For cod/offshore seabass my goto has always been the Avet SX in the 5.3:1. Inshore under 100ft I've tried all the Lexa 300 models and have settled on the 300H at 6.3:1 to be perfect speed and power mix right up there with the Avet SX and SXJ's. Use it for for fluke, seabass, tog, etc. Also have switched out to the power handle from the paddles. This year I may even give the Lexa 400H a try for cod/offshore seabass and see how I like them.
