Super User Montanaro Posted July 25, 2017 Super User Posted July 25, 2017 Kvd catches like 3 bass on one and now they are sold out on TW.... Id say 95% of those spinbaits will sit in their owners box after the first outing. I have them and use them but they are extremely situational and usually prefer a tiny swimjig or hairjig over them 6 Quote
Super User Gundog Posted July 25, 2017 Super User Posted July 25, 2017 So true about them sitting in the owners tackle box. The are situational baits. But that will not stop the masses from buying them. I'll pass on it. I got enough baits I don't use. Even after I sold off 1/10th of what I own. I gotta stop buying lures. 1 Quote
Super User Cgolf Posted July 25, 2017 Super User Posted July 25, 2017 The Arishi Spinbait saved me on a recent trip. It was a tough bite and once I started whacking the on that thing it flipped my attitude around. I do see how they can be a situational bait, but man in the right situation these things are great baits. It is a bait I will be using more in the future. Maybe there will be a lot for sale a year from now when they realize they haven't used them. Quote
Preytorien Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 Mine were situational, then I just started throwing them out and using different retrieves rather than the "correct" one. I have a lot of luck in the summer months retrieving them just subsurface. Seems to do well. Quote
Fishin' Fool Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 KVD + catching monster bass = monster sales. The winning lure could have been a chicken McNugget they would have been sold out on TW 2 Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted July 25, 2017 Super User Posted July 25, 2017 Such is the fishing market. Everyone gets their slice of the pie every once and a while. Quote
Super User webertime Posted July 25, 2017 Super User Posted July 25, 2017 In about 24hours they sold out at TW... Somewhere a hermit that was planning his retirement based on Teckel Frogs is screaming NOOOOOOOOOO! I agree they are very situational. Take them out 10 times and only once will you get anything to write home about. A Keitech is 8 out of 10, a Senko/Ika 9 out of 10. Too many other baits will catch fish more consistently than a spybait... And I really wanted to like them. 4 Quote

Super User Munkin Posted July 26, 2017 Super User Posted July 26, 2017 Are they selling for a ridiculous price yet? Allen Quote
riverbasser Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 No offense intended here but why were you on TW looking at them after watching KVD use one? Lol Im not afraid to admit I've made a few purchased based on lures seen on fishing shows Quote
Megastink Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 3 out of 20 bass caught on a spinbait. The other 17 were on a KVD jerkbait and Dream Shot. Plenty of those left in stock. Quote

Lol Im not afraid to admit I've made a few purchased based on lures seen on fishing shows I'm a big duo realis fan and I wanted to see how quickly the spinbait was selling out based on 3 fish. Duo is posting all sorts of social media content on the spinbait...videos...how to's etc...for three fish (THREE!) they have made an incredible profit. And no ebay isnt over run yet. In fact someone had three 90 sizes selling for 30 dollars which is a steal...considered buying them. But this is why I respect KVD....he will use any product that will catch a fish. From owner to duo....so you know his strike king lures he helped design and uses every tournament are quality. 1 Quote

After doing well with the Arishi version last month, I wanted to pick up a few Duos, Lucky Crafts, and Jackalls to work with next year. Quote
