Seems like they would be rough on your reels. I know my 8ft deep crankbait ain't no baby to reel in, I can't imagine a deep diving one.

That's why most people use a lower gear ratio. Better torque. Kinda like peddling a bike up hill. You'd rather be in 1st gear.

But yeah, it'll wear you down after a while.

Only thing of mine they ever hurt was my wallet. I crank on a 5:1 reel and never really had a problem reeling. Keeping those trebles out of every stump within a mile is another story. They're fun but breaking them off adds up quick, and I have more confidence in a Carolina rig in the same situations.
