Does anyone know some casting reels that come in options good for cranking? Like a 5:1 ratio? 

 

Thanks,

Help us narrow it down for you:

What is your budget?

Do you have a preference for low profile vs round?

Is weight an important consideration?

Any Shimano PG model. Some of the PG models are only available as JDM purchases like the bantam MGL 150PG.

A reel 150$ or under would be ideal, Im searching for a low profile reel and i don't consider weight important

Facebook Shimano buy sell trade sometimes has good stuff.  I bought some Curado G5s a while back.

First off look up “beginner crank bait questions” asked a couple of hours ago. If none of those options appeal to you I’m using a Revo X in 5.4:1 and a Kast King royal legend 2 in 5.3:1 because they were the only low ratio left handed models I could find. Revo right at $99.00 Kast King under $40.00 shipped to the house. Would not recommend the KK for anything other than small/ medium cranks and bass?

Thanks all for the helpful suggestions!
