buzzbaitfool12 Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Hey Guys, Just wanted to give everyone a heads up on the new kvd reels..I have two of the older models and they have been great for spinnerbaits and jig fishing, so I decided to buy two more..I have 6 pt quantum reels and love them..The new kvd for half the price worked just as good..The 6 3 to 1 ratio kvd was awesome today..I loved the way it would zing a mans minus one and the reel felt reel smooth..It is surely a keeper..The 7 to 1 I did not like as much for some reason it felt cheaper mad than the other..few parts were loose and it would not cast as smoothly as the other..I certainly am going to keep the 6 3 and give the 7 1 a few more chances before I unload on this..Right now at bass pro the kvds in Atlanta were priced at 79.99..with my reel trade ins I paid 64 plus tax..That is an awesome deal for these reels.. To everyone who gave me line tips. I have been a big fan of pline, but after today all I can say I am a big fan of the Yozuri Hybrid..I used the 12lb for my cranking applications and 15 for spinnerbaits and this line felt just awesome..Thanks for the advice on this line guys..

Ballpark Frank Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Thanks, I have been looking at the new KVD reels. My wife bought me a Code yesterday, and it seems to be a really good reel. The Code and the KVD look alot alike, the only real difference I can find is the bearings. I "have" to buy a Citica next, to give Shimano BCs a go. But the KVD is on my list. Quote
