I own the ld 30h man it's a sweet reel. Only problem I have had is the lack of grease of the drags causing it to skip on big model fish. So lightly grease your drag and you have the Bruce Lee of reels, small but powerful. All the parts are stainless steel! Awesome design and the handle feels solid when yanking on the good stuff. Believe me I tested this reel hard! I don't know if you would like the 7.1:1 though. IMAO it's to fast and no torque. The 6.3:1 is plenty fast and still grinds pretty well. If you were still to think about reel choices I always say for a jig stick can't beat a Saltist star drag!
