Does TT have a chart for popular baitcasting reels that tabulates inches of line recovered for various makes?
For example the smaller size low profile 7 to 1 gear ratio may advertise 32" of line recovered with each turn of the reel handle, however how many inches are recovered when you cast 60' or 90'?
If you are casting a round reel with larger wider spool, the 5.8 to 1 may recover line faster then a low profile reel with a smaller and narrower spool.
