Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Lews Tournament Pro G LFS gears

Can anybody tell me if the gears in this reel are brass or aluminum? I am aiming to purchase one in the near future, and am curious about the material.

I can't find it. I tried the site and had to make a guess. Makes sense though if they are aluminum, I think many of their reels have to be to achieve less weight. For some reason I never found that though.

Scratch that, found the info you told me after clicking on the warranty/schematic/instructions.
