Best Baitcasting Reels for Bass: Reviews & Recommendations Here are the top picks from OL contributor, Pete Robbins who has chased bass all over the continent

Please note that during peak seasons and promotional periods, processing times may be slightly longer due to increased order volumes

Its all about getting the feel for whats happening and when to put your thumb in the spool to stop it

So, with that in mind, any of the reels on our list with a 7:1 or higher gear ratio will work fine

Also, youll get much better deals and save a lot of money if you purchase during the Fall and Winter which is the off-season for fishing in many parts of the country (though its my favorite time of the year to catch catfish)
