Has anyone tried the Abu Garcia 7000i HSN reel for using Cowgirls and other big bladed baits??

Personal choice though, Okuma Induron 400....do a search, you might want to consider this reel while doing your off-season shopping, too.

The 7000ihsn is the best bucktail burn'in reel on the market. However, I'm using giant killers and harassers with willow leaf blades that do not have the resistance as the big bladed bucktails you are refering to. For that, a reel with a 4 to 1 ratio would be the choice. Kdawg
