New 2015 Steez SV

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Also the name... With the ss sv 103, and the sv 103 steez spool, Surely they won't just call it 'SV 103'? I can see that getting a little confusing :D

Yea...I am confused somewhat...are they just saying the Steez EX with a 105 sv and a 109 spool will throw lighter baits then the SV103 spool?

That is not surprising.....what I am now curious about is why would a EX need to be brought into the discussion at all ?

Are the spools from this NEW Steez SV103...narrower in width?
Why not just put the 105 and 109 into the NEW Steez SV Frame for the comparison of weight.


If everything is the same as far as dimensions of the Steez...then the 109 and 105's will fit any steez BC reels....right?

The KTF 109 and for that matter the 105 spool does not matter if you wish to throw lighter baits with them 3 grams or less without the right rod....and USDM Steez Rod line only has the Steez and Tatula Megatop (basically same rods). They need the Harrier-Finesse to be included in their NEW USDM lineup.

Yea, im looking at spool options for my IS71. Was going to be the sv105 for how versatile it is, but this 109 spool looks awesome and would really pair well with my criffhanger :big grin:

Holy crap that 109 spool is light for its size O_O

I don't have a proper rod with my Metanium 13 with KTF spool (CR722 IMX) but I am still able to get decent distance throwing a 1/16oz keitech jig. I think reel > rod for BFS.

If you are getting good distance then you are using the right rod. A 722 is a Med Light soft tip. Try doing that same setup on a heavy or med hvy flip stick or rod rated at low end of 3/8 oz.There is a Reason they used the megatop rod for this review.

The 722 is still not that great for 1.8g jigs, but I can whip it out there with the upgraded spool. I agree with you that you do need a light rod; I just think its more important to have the spool.

What do you consider good distance for a BFS setup?
