Lews reels have served me well and I’m getting into throwing bigger swimbaits (up to 3-4 ounces). Was wondering if any of you guys use lews for swimbaits and if so which model would be best. Thanks.

    I use a Lew's Super Duty Wide Speed Spool for baits up to 3 oz. I'm sure it'll handle 4 oz fine, I just normally grab my Toro Beast or Tranx for bigger baits. I really prefer the stronger drags versus the 14 lbs (Maximum) the Lew's has.
