is 94cm per crank enough to effectively work poppers and stickbaits 

All this fuss about retrieve ratios and amount of line per crank is only going to be an issue if you are winding flat out(even then....wind faster!).......if you are blooping poppers or working stickbaits...all you are doing is retrieving line and seeing as a lot of stickbaits pop their head up after the stroke....a fast wind is not important as you sweep....wait for the head to pop up and then sweep again.....How is a higher ratio or high line retrieve ratio going to help you there?.......then when you play the fish its harder to get a wind on them because of the higher ratio.
