alphas sv worth the money???

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.

If money is not a problem get the MB zonda. The deep spool is stock.

I got mine in the other day. Spoiled it up with 16lb sniper. This thing casts like a dream. I've never had a $200 reel that was this smooth. I will probably be getting another for shaky heads. Only negative for the reel is the handle is a little on the small side, wi probably be adding a tatula handle if it wi fit

This is one of my favorite reels. I fish it next my aldebaran and I find myself picking it up more and more. I swapped the handle and threw some bearings in the knobs, and that solved the only issue I had with the reel. It's a very versatile reel and fishes well above its price point.
