you may think the tranx 500 is too big but once you get use to it you cant beat it. I replaced all my reels with tranx 500 have a pg and hg. The best of both worlds power and speed!!!

I cant even get use to my Lexa 400 and tranx bigger than that...I ended up putting Lexa on trolling Rod cause to big to Palm...I dont even really like palming the BEAST 60 but am getting use to that now the Beast 50 is Money for Palming along with The 13 Fishing A3 Love that reel man

You must have small hands then.
I wouldnt say that at all...Not that I cant Palm the Lexa its just not comfortable at all and feel ID miss the Hook set Like that not being comfortable...Now a 50 Beast I can palm perfectly and feel ID get a great hook set...There not a ton of size diff between a beast 50 and 60 but its enough that I feel more confident in the 50 than the 60...The Lexa is bigger than the 60 Beast and the Tranx is considerable bigger than the Lexa.....all preference on comfort why pay more for a reel your not comfortable with when you can spend Less and get One you feel comfortable with which IMO means you feel More confident in it as well...Now I Might look into the Tranx 300 or 400 in the future but have no need for another Reel right now...last 9 months have bought abu Record Abu Catfish special abu 6500 round red Abu beast 50hs Beast 60 Beast 60hs then 2 Revo toro S abu Winch along with a Lexa400HSP and The 13 Fishing A3 which I love....so NO need for any reels right now...SO thats 11 reels Just For Muskie Fishing in last 9 Months dont count ones for crappie bass walleye

these threads always crack me up. tranx 500 hg with the Jigging world power handle, bar none the best blade reel out there.
the rest are no comparison...

I would have said a revo stx in the 8:0:1 ratio with the handle off my trailer winch, but it blew out on me and WASNT MY FAULT. (in all honesty that's an awesome bass reel)
