Reliable and durable multipurpose reels .
Size: 6.2:1 Style: Left-hand
Fantastic reel for the money. Once you dial it in to your line preference and lures, it cast's reliably and it has a great drag. Very pleased, I have two of these and I also recommend the KVD rods. I have my reels on composite rods for crank baits mainly, but I have to admit that I have used the CC4 rod for throwing frogs a few times with incredible results! ... show more

Excellent Reel
Size: 8.3:1 Style: Left-hand
This reel is super smooth, super fast and deadly accurate when casting. It's just phenomenal for the price point. Excellent seller also. Had it to me very blazing fast. 10 stars all around. You won't be disappointed buying this reel. I'd buy it again and again. No lie. No bs. This thing can cast a 1/2 ounce jig 80 yards or more on a MH 7ft 4inch rod. It's insane. Plus you can burn it back to you at blazing speed. Covers tons of water. It's just amazing. Worth every freggin penny! ... show more

Great reel even after a year of abuse.
Size: 7.5:1 Style: Left-hand
I purchased this about a year ago. I have really put it through a lot. Still working like the day I unboxed it. Would definitely buy again!

Good Casting Reel
Size: 8.3:1 Style: Left-hand
I really like this casting reel. I've used it four or five times so far while float fishing for steelhead in Michigan and it's been great. Love the 8+ return and the 20 lbs drag system. So far it's handled a couple 12 - 15lbs steelhead with no problems. I especially like the large reel line guide off the spool that doesn't freeze up like the smaller guides on most reels. I fish a lot in sub freezing weather and not having the reel line guide freeze up is important. Am looking forward to seeing how it holds up against the 20-30 lbs king salmon this fall. I expect it'll do fine. ... show more

Super clean 8:3:1 lfs
Size: 8.3:1 Style: Left-hand
This is my second 8:3:1 LFS speed reel from Lews and I have to say, outside of the foam paddles this is a very esthetically pleasing baitcaster. Functionality is super smooth, caster super far and is really fast to land that fish in quick. Very light and getting the schematics is really easy. Can't go wrong with this reel. Just change the eva foam for fighting black paddles and you're set! ... show more

KVD 6.2 Ratio in Left Hand Retrieve
Size: 6.2:1 Style: Left-hand
I have been looking for a left handed cranking reel in a ratio of 5:? To 1, but if the GOAT says 6.2 works then so be it. I have looked around and only found $200 LH baitcasters in cranking gears, this is $50 cheaper. I have never used baitcasters before until Lews offered LFS reels in LH, so take that for what it is. This reel is modeled just like the LFS line but with more features. I own several Lews LFS models (6.8 to 1 + 7.5 to 1), a tournament series (8.3 to 1) and a couple of BB1s (6.5 to 1). This reel has everything the other reels have packed into 1. LFS body/shape. Tournament’s centrifugal clutch w/magnetic drag. BB1’s centrifugal clutch (with less points of contact. All with 10+1 bearings. Adjustability seems unlimited. Casting is smooth. Retrieve is a little stiff but will loosen up with use. Great reel, only ding is for price. Not everyone can buy a $150 reel. ... show more

Good value.
Size: 7.5:1 Style: Left-hand
Good reel for the money. It took some adjusting to limit snarls, but it works fine once set up.

Has quickly become my favorite Baitcaster.
Size: 7.5:1 Style: Left-hand
Out of the dozen or so baitcasters I own this had quickly become my new favorite. Smooth casting and retrieve, great backlash control and looks great too.
