Just wondering what everyone's opinion was on reel color? Do you have a favorite? Does it even matter? Also, if you would post below and tell me what gear ratio you look for in a big cat reel. 3.1:1, 4.1:1, 5.5:1, etc. I have something I am working on and I need some input from you guys.  Thanks in advance, David |

I like green and orange. I have always used the 4.1:1 but would like a little quicker retrieve at times.

Reel color doesnt really matter a whole lot to me. I like my green Abu 7000B alot. Green is my fav color. as far as gear ratio most of the reels are 4.1:1, but I would go with a higher gear ratio if I could.

Reel color doesn't matter much to me. After the first trip most of my reels are mud brown no matter what color they started.
I guess if I could wish I would have glow in the dark reels. ;D

I like to match my reels to my rods, red with red, black with black. My girlfriend is always onto me about not matching. Joking, of course. Doesn't really matter much, as long as it works, it could be pink for all I care.
