Svivlo Genesis ONE
Description
Choosing gear ratio
Genesis ONE is a high-performance baitcasting reel designed for anglers who demand precision, durability, and versatility. With advanced CastGuard technology and smooth operation, it excels in both freshwater and light saltwater environments. Genesis ONE is ideal for pike, zander, and other larger predator fishing, whether you’re casting crankbaits, spinnerbaits, jigs, or soft plastics. Its robust build and two gear ratio options (6.3:1 for control, 8.1:1 for speed) make it perfect for a wide range of techniques from slow, methodical retrieves to fast, aggressive presentations.
⚙️ Gear Ratio Guide: 6.3:1 vs 8.1:1
- 6.3:1 Gear Ratio – Versatile & Controlled
- Best for: Crankbaits, spinnerbaits, swimbaits, and techniques where slower, more controlled retrieves are ideal.
- Why choose it: Offers better torque and line control, especially when fighting larger fish or using resistance-heavy lures.
- 8.1:1 Gear Ratio – Fast & Aggressive
- Best for: Jigs, soft plastics, topwater, and techniques that require quick line pickup or fast presentations.
- Why choose it: Ideal for burning lures, flipping/pitching, or quickly reeling in slack line after a strike.
🎯 Quick Tip:
If you’re unsure, go with 6.3 for all-around use. Choose 8.1 if you fish aggressively or want speed for specific techniques.

Typical Diameter-to-Strength Conversions for braided line
| Diameter (mm) | PE Rating | Breaking Strength (lbs) | Breaking Strength (kg) |
| 0.20 mm | PE 1.2 | 20–30 lbs | 9.1–13.6 kg |
| 0.205 mm | PE 1.5 | 22–32 lbs | 10.0–14.5 kg |

How much 0.4 mm monofilament is needed to back the spool when you want to have 150 m of braided line?
| 150 m Braided Line Diameter (mm) | Monofilament Backing (0.4 mm) in Meters | Monofilament Backing (0.4 mm) in Yards |
| 0.14 | 105 m | 115 yards |
| 0.20 | 85 m | 95 yards |
| 0.205 | 85 m | 90 yards |
| 0.27 | 55 m | 60 yards |
| 0.32 | 25 m | 30 yards |
| 0.36 | 0 m (practically 2 m) | 0 yards (practically 2 yards) |
| 0.40 | N/A (reduce to ~124 m of braid) | N/A |
Note:
- Material Difference: Braided line and monofilament have different densities and packing efficiencies. Braided line is typically more compact due to its weave, while monofilament might pack less densely, especially if it has memory or stiffness. This can reduce the effective capacity slightly (e.g., by 10–20%).
- Safety Margin: Anglers often leave a small gap (1–2 mm from the flange) to prevent overfilling and tangles.
- All numbers are approximate and should not be treated as exact measurements.
