/what is a retrieve ratio and why is it important?

Retrieve ratios are a common term used for baitcasting fishing reels. However it can often be hard and confusing to find out what this means and why its important. As with any sport there is always some lingo that takes a while to understand. This article explains exactly what retrieve ratio’s are and why they are important.

When referring to retrieve ratios the number quoted is in relation to the gears on the reel – you will often see something like a 2:1, 6:1, 7:3 ratio quoted. The number on the left is referring to the number of times the spool wraps around the line and the number on the right is per revolution. A revolution is simply one full turn of the handle.

In the examples previously quoted, a 6:1 ratio would mean that the spool wraps around 6 times for one full turn of the handle. This indicates it is a fast reel.

In a real world scenario it would mean that you could reel in a fish at the end of your line a lot quicker than some other reels – turn the handle once, and you have already retrieved 6 spools worth of line.

The higher the number on the left compared to the right is usually indicative of a higher quality reel and also means the angler exerts a lot less effort since they simply need to turn the handle less to bring the line back in fully, whether there is a fish attached to the end or not.

This is not always the case however as there are a lot of other factors involved in a reels quality outside of the gear ratio, such as drag, levelwinds, smoothness and so on. A faster moving spool can also be a lot harder to control for beginners.

If you are new to using a baitcasting fishing reel then you might want to consider using a reel with a lower retrieve ratio at first so you can get used to the spool speed. If you cannot control it properly you will only end up with birds nests and other problems and while you are facing downtime because of this, it eats into your game time quite considerably.

Remember, you can always upgrade at a later date or even better, why not purchase a spare reel to practice on? This way you are ready to move onto the better kit sooner.

I am an expert fisherman. My preference is to use Shimano fishing reels or Penn fishing reels. If you would like more information or to see some please click here now

Manabu Kurita New World Record Largemouth Bass

A lot has been written recently about Manabu Kurita, a 32 year old trophy bass hunter from Japan, about his catch of the new world record largemouth bass.

Manabu Kuita World record largemouth

In case you have been living in a cave, he caught a 22.311 pound largemouth bass on July2, 2009, from one of Japan’s oldest lakes, Lake Biwa, a 165,00 acre lake, surpassing George Perry’s long standing record of 77 years.

It is illegal to release bass back into the lake in Japan as the Japanese government considers them an invasive species and is trying to irradicate them and the Bluegill that reside there.

This however has nothing to do with the attitude of the majority of Japanese bass anglers or Manabu Kurita regarding this highly prized gamefish.

Manabu is one of my closest friends and has proven his dedication and honesty to me many times over in the past year.

Many of you may have seen the article that appeared recently in Bassmaster magazine on Manabu Kurita and his trophy hunting tactics.

Bassmaster Magazine

After this article appeared I got many comments on his methods from all over the world, some good, some bad, but, i will tell you now that there is no other trophy bass hunter alive today who is more dedicated and more commited to the pursuit of preservation of trophy largemouth bass than my friend Manabu Kurita.

He is shy and unassuming and his honesty is very refreshing.

He has taken more giant bass on swimbaits, the “Mother” in particular, which he designed himself, than most other anglers could ever hope to see in their lifetime.

Before he landed the new world record bass this year, he already held the lake record for Lake Biwa, with an 18 pound behemoth he caught in 2008 on the “Mother’ swimbait.

Lake Biwa record 2008

If you would like to see all of Manabu Kurita’s pictures, most of which can not be seen on any website, and talk with him in person, just stop in at Northeast Bass fishing For Trophy Bass website where he is a member and talk with him in the forums. You will not be disappointed!

Congratulations to Manabu Kurita. He is a true trophy hunter dedicated to the pursuit of world record bass like no other. I am proud to say that in the past year he has become one of my closest friends, Another person who helps him a great deal but receives no real credit is Reika Ishaguro who designs his website, communicates his thoughts and wishes to me and others, and also is a great angler in her own right.

Steve vonBrandt was sponsored by major manufacturers which included Gary Yamamoto Custom Baits, Okuma, Delaware Tackle, TTI-Blakemore, and Ambush Lures.

He was inducted into the NAFC Hall Of Fame in 2003 and was the 1998 Big Bass World Champ.
