about gear ratios and line retrieved per crank...
the higher the gear ratio, the faster line is retrieved but...
what about the diameter of the spool? larger diameters = faster retrieve??
I got a Calcutta 400 (5.0:1) and it only gets 24 inches/crank but the diameter is real small
The Torium has a gear ratio at 6.2:1, which is not that much more than the Calcutta, but does have a large diamter and it retrieves at 46"/crank
with the narrow and large diameter of the MXJ at 5.8:1, my guess is a retirieve near 40 or more but Avet's doesnt give those specs...
