lets see if I can calculate this correctly. Please correct my math if I screw up.
On an abu 6500 or a calcutta 400 I count 10 seconds to 1 turn of the handle when dragging the eel in. So for the abu 6500 with a ratio of 5.3 to 1 and a spool diameter of say 2 inches we get 3.14 X 2 X 5.3=33 inches in 10 seconds. If you figure the spool at 1.5 inches you get about 24-25 inches in 10 seconds.
So now you can figure how fast to crank any reel if you know the spool diameter and gear ration.
