Been reading through this thread. I want a 2 speed for the same reason....lower gear pulling power. I'm having a problem with how much drag pressure we can actually use from a kayak. Do any of you engineers know? I don't think it's more than 10 to 12 lbs before we get pulled over....that's straight down. I have a really hard time breaking 30lb mono when I catch the bottom and I've never broken off using the rod...unless a fish is on the other end going through the rocks.
For the original poster.....I've been using a Newell 332 for a long time and I've caught everything I've wanted. Drag maxes about 8 pounds. Newells were one of the first to improve on the Jigmaster. Hard to find anything easier to service than a Jigmaster. Alantani.com and learn how to put that back together.
