Tested some of the KO I bought

[PII Magnum]

well I finally found some open water today so I could test some of my baits

I have several differant blanks

1. DT 6 KO all it wanted to do is roll or run way wide, tried tuning without much luck even broke one of the lips. 100% junk

2. RC 2.5 KO I have 5 two of them ran perfect 2 ran to the left and 1 ran to the right. I did get 4 out of the 5 to run true, and with a little work I bet I could get the other to run also.

3. LVR D7 ko I only had 1 ran true and was a screamer great bait

4. LV 500 ko Ran very true also

5. floating traps that ran pretty good ( suprizing)

6. Buzzjet Jr. I only bought it becasue it was differant This bait is BAD ASS I be buying some more of these.

Out of the 6 baits I tested I was really impressed with # 6 and 3.

The RC 2.5 need some work tuning them but have a nice wide wobble will probley buy some more.

The Dt 6 I had were 100 % junk I wont buy any more of those.

Hope this helps some of you guys

Thx for all the info! Where are u getting the D7 and 500 knockoffs?

[paskeeter]

HMMMM. I have some of the DT 6's and they run just fine with just a little tuning. Are you sure you are getting the bills in all the way and as straight as possible?

[PII Magnum]

I sure they area tight fit but only go in one way, mabye I got a bad batch.

Did you mess with the bills on the new RC's, or could you fix all of it just by bending the line tie?

[PII Magnum]

the RC just needed a good fine tuning

[gunnie3035]

As with any bait keep in mind rings, hooks, and line will factor in. I had some Ito 110 blanks that didn't work so well with heavy #4 hooks but ran great with light wire #4's. I've noticed the shape and line tie size [or snap] plays a role.

I got out today,(finally), and got some much needed bait testing done. Ran the RC2.5 blanks, the LVR blanks, and my new Wide Load square bill balsa. The 2 blanks both ran great, the 2.5's needed a little tuning, but alot of name brand crankbaits do require some tuning out of the pack, so no big deal. The LVR's all 4 that I threw were great. But I'm the most excited about the Wide Load. I ran 2 test baits today, and both were awesome. Not really the time of year for them but I think they will be the stuff when the time is right. Action is killer, they push alot of water, cast like a bullet, and come through cover like a square bill should. I'm waiting to get feedback from a few guy's that I have testing some of these baits for me, just to be sure the results are consistant before I add them to the line up, but they will be available soon.
