How hard would it be to have a mak 8 modified to a higher gear for yoyo jigging for yellowtail and wahoo?  I know about the cedros but hate blue!  :)

Something in the 6 range?

Thank you...

my guess, next to impossible.  you'd have to change the number of gear teeth and the diameters of both gears.  you'd need some pretty serious pull to get something like that done!
