Baitcaster for light lures
Re: Baitcaster for light lures
I'm absolutely loving my SV105. Stock out of the box it's just the cat's azz for launching light baits.

I would highly recommend the alphas sv as well.
Re: Baitcaster for light lures
I will get that air spool for the tatula considering I already own a tatula and make it a finesse machine... Also by that carbon handle gor it and it will look sweet.

Alpha SV best bang for the buck$.

That should work well also. Let us know how the spool performs for you in the user review thread.Draethe84 wrote:I will get that air spool for the tatula considering I already own a tatula and make it a finesse machine... Also by that carbon handle gor it and it will look sweet.

Yep will order one maybe today or tomorrow
Re: Baitcaster for light lures
What line would you recommend for an air spool
Re: Baitcaster for light lures
I'm a little late, but an Airy Red Pixilla is hard to beat. You can find one for a good deal these days, and do minor upgrades along the way. I spool all of mine with 7lb Sniper.

Re: Baitcaster for light lures
It is really user preference. 4-8lb mono or flouro of your choice, or 15lb braid are what I would recommend. If you use braid, put some mono backing on first and consider using a mono or flouro leader.Draethe84 wrote:What line would you recommend for an air spool

I agree! I bought 2 from Japan dealer used and am simply amazed at their performance with light baits.
I have one on a Jackson 6'4" Super Trickster and the other on a Megabass Hedgehog X4 and both with the 7# Sniper( which I find is their best line test)
Re: Baitcaster for light lures
i recently got the alphas sv105sh as well and was pretty surprised at how well it could cast light lures. it literally shoots out like a cannon with the flick of the wrist
Re: Baitcaster for light lures
alright so I was going to get a spool from ali express and I don't know if it is safe... but then again by the time you just go out and buy a spool and some line you might as well just buy a new caster
Re: Baitcaster for light lures
Look at the new Alpha Air. SW safe and designed for small baits and is sub $300 new from Plat meaning others should have it even cheaper since Plat is usually higher than jpangler or other places.

I live in Australia though so what is cheap to Americans is a little bit heavier on the pocket. But was looking at the Curado and Scorpion 70 reels planned for release this year!
