Title: Lower gear ratio for a TLD 15/30.
Post by: Normslanding on July 08, 2020, 01:32:05 PM
Hi all, I have 4 TLD 15/30's. I have been doing a little fishing in Tampa Bay. I thought it would be great to have a TLD with a gear ratio of 4 or under.
Anyone have ideas about a gear set that would hopefully be LOW.

you'd have to go to a different reel.  the tld star drag reels are so highly prized because of the higher gear ratio.

Ya, Something like a Tibruon with the interchamble gears. Higher price and more to maintain.
