Hi lake raider
The 10 in trout work well up to about 3 mph due to the head not being very stream line. I have been making mackerels and sardines in 7, 8, 9 and 10 inch which can be retrieved at a higher speeds due to the more streamed line head. I have not used a high speed reel to test these baits out, I have burned them back with my lower speed reels and they do very well. I hope this answers your question. I'm interested in trying to make something that might accomodate your needs, if your interested in talking about it PM me.
Tight lines,
James
