Just remember it isn't going to get a fish away from cover with that low ratio like a 7:1 with a similar size spool. It should work well for any bait you want to work slow, as slow rolling a SB down deep. Blitz spinnerbaits that were designed for those ratios back around '70. If you don't know, the red 50B have a low gear ratio, 3.75:1 if I remember correctly. That was they reel to have in it's day and I still have 4 and they are still going strong.
