you might want to look at the Shimano Charter Special 2000. We have 8 of them, we use them for live lining, bottom fishing as well as trolling, they are a level wind reel, all graphite so they are nice and light and easy for other people to fish with. Not sure what the gear ratio is off hand but you might want to check them out. They are a die hard reel, can't beat them for the money. Spool with 50 lb braid and you will be all set!!!
