Can't beat this rod....,August 28, 2009
By azbassmanfrom Gilbert, AZ
Advantages: Performs well, Quality, Value for money
"Picked up a 7' worm set up, fast action, mod-heavy rod and 6.3:1 reel, and I am very impressed by this rig. The reel is smooth, has a flippin switch, and absolutely outperforms other comparable reels from other brands. Reeled in some nice fish with this rod, and plan to stock my collection with a few more in the Quantum KVD line."

Great Buy!!!,July 11, 2009
By Tysonfrom Newton, Iowa
Advantages: Performs well Disadvantages: absolutely nothing to complain about.
"I purchased a 7 ft. Medium action rod with the 6.3 gear ratio reel I believe. Either way it doesn't matter on the details. I love this rod almost as much as my Fenwick walleye spinning rod. Definately my favorite baitcasting rig. I have caught a ton of bass on it and the lighter tip makes the little taps very noticeable when fishing soft plastics. I have yet to catch any fish this year on spinnerbaits. It works great for crankbaiting as well. I landed some northern pike last week on it trolling and casting up to 30 inches. It is a good all around rod and the flipping switch works great. You do have to remember to turn it off when casting. It is worth every penny and I recommend this as a great buy. I wasn't a big Quantum fan this is my first and they have impressed me very much with this combo."

Great Combo that is affordable,June 4, 2009
By Croftyfrom Salem, KY
Advantages: Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Style/Design, Value for money
"This Combo that i recently purchased is an excellent value for the money. My 7' medium heavy Rod has great power and is very light. The reel is great. the flipping switch is so helpful when in rough cover and in any other position. This is by-far my best rod and reel that i own. It was a great choice to purchase this combo."

Pretty good product,April 10, 2009
By cameronsparks5
"I bought a 6'6 medium action with 6.2.1 reel, and im here to say the reel is GREAT, but the rod isnt. Its good for a couple of weeks,but it broke on me the other day. I was throwing a spinnerbait and i go to set the hook and SNAP, lucky that fish loved my KVD scorcher lure and i was able to land him (dont buy the 6'6 medium action). Im gonna get the 7'0 medium heavy action, cause i believe KVD products."

Best Combo I Have!,March 1, 2009
By DECKKERfrom Michigan
"I could go on and on about how much I love this combo. I am a younger angler so I don't have that big of a budget and I can only get a rod maybe once a year. The reel is incredable smooth and I can cast a mile. I am still getting used to the flipping switch but when I do I know it will be very helpful. All I can say is that this is incredable combo for the price and is perfect for the low budget angler. I think I'm going to buy the KVD Spinning Combo too. Bottom line, I would recommend this to anyone and this is a great combo."

great reel / so-so rod,October 21, 2008
By fischfrom Georgia
"I have two KVD baitcast combo's. I absolutely love the reels. The rods on the other hand, are going to snap any day now. I use 1/4 oz crankbaits and during the retreive, I can actuallky hear the rods creeking. Let me add that Im using the 6'6 med action. I totally believe in KVD and Quantum so I will never give up on their products. If you buy the KVD combo setup, buy a MED/HEV action rod. The medium is just too flimsy. KVD is the MAN!!!"

The rod is garabage,October 15, 2008
By Ziglerfrom Mercer, Pa
"The reel is wonderful being my first baitcaster but the rod leaves something to be desired. The rod snapped on me way to quickly. I recommend buying the reel and buy a separate rod."

Can they make this any better?,April 24, 2008
By NEW2FISHNfrom SW Iowa
"This is my second KVD signature baitcaster and all I can say is...WOW!! This thing is amazing. The smoothness is unlike anything I've used before. If you are scared to try a baitcaster, then this is the one to buy! Where else can you get a 10 ball bearing combo for this insanely low price?? Best money you'll spend!"

Very Good Combo,April 7, 2008
By WVMtneersfrom Alum Creek, WV
"This was my first baitcaster and I am glad I purchased this one. Works very smooth and made well. The only complaint I have is when you use a deep diving crankbait it seems to put a real strain on the reel even though it worked fine. Great Product."

KVD DOES IT AGAIN,February 23, 2008
By BASSkickerfrom SAN JOSE, CA
"Once again Kevin designs another great rod and reel combo!!! I have two of the first series that he put out and I love them. So when the new series hit the market I HAD TO GET ONE FOR MYSELF. The rod and reel are perfectly balanced. The reel is silky smooth and cast very well. The flippin switch also comes in very handy. I highly recommend this product. If you are in the market for a great setup at a reseasonable price this combo is well worth the money!!!!"
