Squidder aftermarket gears???

[Stewie]

Actually, I saw a Squidder for sale on Ebay that had an additional gear box outside the right sideplate, but it was so awkward and goofy lookin' that I didn't even think of bidding on it. Imagine two sideplates about a half inch apart, with the star drag between them.

Reel-Deal I think it is about 4 to 1 so that would make it 8 to 1
Or buy a newell, pen mag, avet, etc

Got Newells and Avets... not a fan of the Penn Mag. But just was curious. What I'll be using the Squidder for won't require high gears anyway, but still would have been nice to keep an eye out if the existed. Guess not. Thanks.

Put your elbow out so that your forearm is parallel with the spool shaft. Flip wrist and forearm together to turn crank at light speed. After ten or twelve casts, remove the reel from the rod and throw it into the ocean.

.........or sell it


....it took me about 8 tries to get past spellcheck with "parallel"
