Does anyone know the gear ratio on the 550 Plus?  Looks like a more conventional drag stack, no bearings, graphite foot.  Any other differences with the 5500?

Hello.... is this the solid axle jobbie, with the 2 drag washers, or the ultracast model, with the 4-drag pack?
There are 4 variations of this reel.... one conventional, and three ultracast.

It's one of the ultracast.

It seems to be common 5.3:1 ratio.
I just tested.
