Aaron Martens lays out his reasons for fishing high speed reels for everything. When he speaks of high speed, we’re talking faster than 8.1:1.

The reasons are many, but it comes down to efficiency:

  • easier fishing
  • more casts
  • more water covered
  • more hookups
  • more fish staying hooked and boarding his boat

This is a fun and interesting uncut, free-form talk session with a guy with an uncanny ability to catch bass anywhere in the country.
