BILLINGS HA High-Power Spinning Reel (22LB Max Drag)

Upgrade your tackle arsenal with the BILLINGS HA Spinning Reel, a robust fighter designed to handle everything from aggressive bass to coastal saltwater species. The standout feature of this reel is its impressive 22LB (10KG) Max Drag system, providing exceptional stopping power to tire out hard-fighting fish without breaking your line. Built for longevity, it features a precision-machined Metal Spool that ensures smooth line release for long-distance casting and a sturdy CNC Rocker Arm (handle) that won’t flex under pressure. With a classic 5.2:1 Gear Ratio, this reel strikes the perfect balance between torque and speed, making it the ideal “all-purpose” choice for cranking crankbaits, slow-rolling spinners, or working soft plastics. Whether you are hitting the lake or the pier, the BILLINGS HA offers the premium feel of a metal-bodied reel with the versatility to fish in both fresh and saltwater environments.

⚙️ GEAR RATIO DECODED: 5.2:1

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

• 1 Full Turn of the Handle = 5.2 Rotations of the Spool

THE “GOLDILOCKS” BALANCE 5.2:1 is the classic “All-Rounder” speed. It isn’t too fast, and it isn’t too slow.

WHY CHOOSE 5.2:1?

• 💪 High Torque (Power): Unlike high-speed reels (7.1:1) that sacrifice power for speed, this ratio acts like a winch. It is easier to reel in heavy lures or fight heavy fish without the handle feeling “stiff.”

• 🎯 Strike Zone Control: It naturally retrieves lures at a moderate pace, keeping your bait in the fish’s face for longer.

BEST LURES FOR THIS RATIO:

• ✅ Crankbaits: (Won’t tire your arm out).

• ✅ Spinnerbaits / Spoons: (Steady, thumping retrieve).

• ✅ Live Bait / Catfishing: (Maximum power for the fight).
