Hahaha, as if! seriously though, I agree with the others, I don’t think it’s out yet. I’m waiting for a VR51 myself and have been told I could get the 75 spool to fit it since they aren’t making a lefty in that size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReyAztecaNY Posted November 20, 2021 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 from VS social media: "The VR75's are arriving at a store near you! Machined, sealed, sub 9 ounces with a high capacity spool and a blistering 39" per turn! From a 7' ML inshore rod to a Light 9 surf rod this little reel will get it done!"

Please get back to us with a review.......I'm eyeing this one up as opposed to the VR50 as i am going to need something on my 9'6" Weapon that i'm going to have built this year......

jk20a3 Posted November 21, 2021 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 Any reason you couldn't put a VR50 spool on the 75? I can see the other way around being an issue. Just curious if anyone handles one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What # test, diameter, and how much did it take? I'm thinking 30-40# SSV2 Edited November 21, 2021 by nfnDrum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking 30-40# SSV2 I used a spool of 300 30#, took quite a bit less than the full spool, don’t have a line counter to know for sure though.
