SV Boost in older Daiwa reels?

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.

SV Boost in older Daiwa reels?

Post by Hogsticker2 » Thu Feb 08, 2024 9:48 pm

Has anyone tried one of the boost spools in one of the original Steez SV reels, or a TDZ platform? I'm thinking about buying the shallow version to try in these, but I'm not sure if it's going to be overly wild or not.

Hello!
I used SV Boost Zillion spool with 15 lb PE with Steez SV TW 1016 reel, if you interesting. I paired it with 7-21 g M-power rod and fish bottom contact jig + soft lures. It cast very comfortable and a little further if compared with "original SV". I think it versatellite spool and can be used with mono or fluorocarbone + cranks, vib and minnows.

Thank you. I run the Zpi Nrc001-m spool in my Steez SV TW reels. Have you tried it by any chance?

Hello!
No, unfortunately not. I use only original 1016 spool, SV Boost and chinese DIY (KKR, Roro, etc).

I bought this SV Boost G1 1000 (non-shallow version) 34mm about a year ago and it is very wild in my older TD Zillions and TD Fuegos with spacers, and also my Steez SV and SV103 34 mm spool platforms. Are the magnets in the newer Daiwa boost reels stronger because with the magnets on all of these reels turned all of the way up you have to tighten down the cast control cap to get the spool to slow down. I don't like to have to do this because it creates tension on the retrieve. Also, Is anyone fishing the early SV spools in the new Zillion? I would guess that they would be over-braked.

Not seeing why it wouldn't be great. I was just using my steez103 with a steez sv tw spool, and it was great.

Is the Steez SV TW spool a boost spool?

Its not. I had the boost spool from the 21 zillion, but traded the spool for an mg-002 spool from a bud before i even had the chance of trying it.

Thanks for the reply. It's looking like you need stronger magnets for this boost spool than the older reels have. I don't think that there is anything wrong with the inductor or spring. I guess that I may have to buy new Zillion to cross check all of my spools.

Why would you need stronger magnets? If the spool works in a reel with stronger braking force, it will work on the steez103, its just gonna be faster inside a steez than something like the tdz.

The boost spool that I mentioned is not very controllable in the older platforms. Stronger magnets will keep the braking on the spool engaged longer.

Pretty sure it’s the same reason why the zpi nrc001 spools didn’t play well with the older daiwas. Too little braking for most people no matter how high you cranked the dial.
