Understanding Gear Ratio Of Fishing Reels


Understanding Gear Ratio Of Fishing Reels


we're going to talk about gear ratios unreal what they mean and when you should use which style ratio and typical gear ratio is 6.3.2.1 or 5, 2.2.1, 4.2.1.
In fact, all that means is that with every one revolution of your handle on this reel it's five-point two to one so every time I turn that handle one time this spool is spinning five-point two times the amount.
If you have a six point three two one that means with one turn of the handle your spool is spinning six-point three times so that's a very high speed retrieve and you want a high-speed retreat when you're using maybe a buzz bait or if you're burning a spinnerbait through the water then a six point three to one is good a four-point two to one something lower that is made more for cranking and for crankbaits or for jigging and that's the difference.

And that will be the difference between the two gear ratios and what gear ratio means or what gear ratio is all about.
