Looking to upgrade gears in a PIXY Liberto

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Looking to upgrade gears in a PIXY Liberto

Post by down4ttown » Thu Apr 19, 2018 9:30 am

Who would carry them? Wanting to go up to a high speed reel to use for a Ned variant type bait or wacky worm. I currently use my PX-R for my ned rig, so can I use the same gearing in the liberto? If so, I know tackletrap sells that, but I wanted to be sure before ordering.

Yes sir I do. I mean it doesn't get much use due to the speed, but I think if I put faster gears in it, it will be a Ned Rig Beast! I am all about using baitcasters where I can. I want a Senko rig too, so don't know which way I will go.

Honestly, they just don't make reels like this anymore. It is solid, smooth and just flat out performs.
