Once power handle becomes an option on lower gear ratio model it will be added to my arsenal as I am not a big fan of higher gear ratio reels for bottom fishing and prefer the power handle over the paddle

i'm waiting also. 4.9.1 will pull just about anything down there.

Agree w/ MVP that the Avet may be a little over the top for fluke, but another thing to consider is that it is made in the USA.

Lexa in my opinion. Not even a debate
