The lowest I've seen in a long time is a 5:1 Shimano.

Forkduc how does that reel compare to the older Lew's BB1 with the 3. Something gear ratio? Looking for something to throw 10x crankbaits!!!

I don't throw anything larger than a DD14 and it works fine for that. The least used reel in my arsenal!

I bought a BPS with 4.5:1


One 10-pounder is better than ten 1-pounders; but 100 1-pounders is ok too!
