Would the BB1 pro be better than the super duty for deep cranking. Have only owned one lews and I loved it. Would like some info from you lews guys.

I have a BB1 for cranking. The complaint... The brake system is a **(*&$ pain to access and adjust. For that reason I would go with the super duty if it's a decent reel.

I have two tourney pros in 5.4. Have worked good for me so far.
I haven't picked up a super duty yet, but I plan to for my flipping stick.
Should be a good choice

BB1 pro is just a dial for the brake system, it's not like the BB1. I have both and I really like the BB1 pro.

I used the 6.4 tourney pro for SB fishing. Never thought to use it for deep divers. I may give that a try to

The 5.4:1 Super Duty would make a fine crankbait reel but I would opt for the BB1. It's got a wider spool and it throws a little farther than the Super Duty.
Some folks say that fishin on a Sunday is a sin, but if a fish bites my line, you know I'm gonna reel him on in!

I will be at the Mesquite Tackle Expo in the Olsens / Pro Am fishing / Lews booth tomorrow. If some of you get a chance come by and talk to me about these reels. We will have some discounted pricing off MSRP also.
