Carolina rigs get tossed on my Supreme - which is a 7.1:1

  • Super User

Something north of 6.0:1

For years I used a 6.3:1, but I upped it to 7.1:1 two years ago.

You're just reeling in slack as you drag it, don't overthink it - 7:1..

I like a faster reel to try and prevent the bass from swallowing the bait before I can set the hook. And I can crank a faster reel slower than I can crank a slower reel faster. I like a 8.1-1 for bottom soft plastics.
