Looking for a setup for around $400. Was thinking of going with the revo winch just not sure on rod. Any suggestions? What are u throwing it on?

fast action and ugly stick in the same sentence will never happen

Ugly Stick Ultra Light and make sure the Queen Slams it in the Dishwasher BEFORE you fish

Check with Brian at The Tackle Trap... He's a BBC sponsor and sells the Shimano Crucial Swimbait rod and the Curado 300E - that will make a fine A-Rig set up... and he sells "Tackle Trap Rigs" too

I am using a 7'6 XH St. Croix with a Shimano Calcutta...it was my Musky rod when I lived in WI.

Brian is great to deal with and that crucial is a nice rod. I would go with a Cardiff over the curado 300 though. Or a Calcutta te would be awesome.

What about revo winch or torro winch? Paired with crucial? And whats the best gear ratio for the a-rig?

bass pro shop muskie combo, get a 8ft and it'll handle those rigs like they were a spinnerbait

I would go with a high speed reel, these rigs don’t pull hard like a deep diving crankbait so you don’t need the low ratio. I use 7:1 reels and love them, if you need to slow roll it you can just crank slower, but if you need to burn it a slow reel makes that a pain.

I got rid of all my Ugly Sticks because of you! AND MY CROCS!

I throw it on 6.2:1 reels cause it isn't really a chore to reel them. I'm sure a sure a 5:1 would be fine, though... I like the old green curados ($80 at most on e-bay) and the 7'11 veritas rod by abu Garcia ($100) this setup will be just fine- Might buy two with the money u save cause the a-rig is the real-deal holyfield....

Either would be fine and Brian can get those for you as well at a nice BBC discount... I like the Curado 300E myself
