>>2638344>Is a higher gear ratio always better?It's easier to retrieve a fast reel slow than to retrieve a slow reel fast. There is also utility in having the speed to pick up line if the fish swims directly towards you creating slack.
If I were you I'd get this instead tbqh. The one piece machined reel handle is a luxury since it won't come loose while fighting a fish like the screw and hinge handles do.
