Wow, what you stumble on when bored

[joedog]

Ever hear of this?
Ever use something like this?
What do you know about this? ( gimick sponsored by KVD?)
Is KVD starting to build portfolio before retirement?
Didn't know you could use such devices in Pro-Tournament competion, was I wrong?
Is this KVD's real secret?
Anyone ever buy from this site? If so your thoughts?

I think I saw a show of Bill Dances where he used something similar.

I already ordered one. I'm going to hitch it to a remote radio-control boat so I can use it from shore! ( Just joking )

Scientist and ministers have discovered that if you loop the sound backwards, it says KVD...KVD...KVD...

[nofearengineer]

The psuedo-scientific babble in the ad for that thing is hilarious.

Impedance Free Speaker Operation......

If it's a speaker...it has an impedance. Otherwise...no power or sound LOL.

Frequency Amplification System...

You mean an equalizer?

[BigBassin144]

I'm not so sure about the product, but there are a number of pros on tour using them.

Monster (outdoorproshop) is a well known store and fine to order from.

Its been around a year or so,generally sold out when it came out like bama rigs,goes on the idea of feeding fish make others go nuts and in real life they do.
One can have bass come out and look at a bait and turn then have white bass tear the water white toss same bait back and that bass that followed will hammer it.
As for pros building a portfolio sounds wise,and if in on the ground floor do know tad more about what they are investing in.And kvd isnt alone in that thinking,Davy Hite bought out a piece of a chip company,as an example.200 bucks a lake no less.

LMAO, yeah Bryce you should know.
Isn't that like the pot and kettle thing?
You get my vote for funniest quote of the week.
C'mon, break it down and explain it for us in Layman's Terms.
Oh, you can't as you are not fluent in Layman...........
It's going to be a long winter - I'm alread getting bored.
Sorry, I'm going to visit another board now.....................

A gew years ago they came out with the biosonix. Now they have the hydrowave. The biosonix was reported as being difficult to use and didn't seem to many to be any help at all. You can pick them up used now fairly cheap. Bassmaster just had an article on the hydrowave, It seems that KVD suposedly pulled into an area where several guys were fishing over suspended fish, The fish were not biting until KVD pulled up. KVD then started catching fish and anyone that got close to him caught some too. They said it was because the hydrowave on his boat turned the fish on. They say this works best around schooled fish that are in a non feeding mode. Same thing they say the A rig does by imitating a small school of fleeing baitfish. I have no idea if any of that is true or if KVD is just an alien with mind control over bass. Or if the fish just decided to surender when they saw his boat pull up? I know that if it takes fancy sound emiting speakers to catch an extra fish or two, then thats taking it way to far for me, but then i don't fish for a living. Most people buy or use the very best equipment available for whatever they do for a living. Mechanics use Snap on Tools etc. So, for someone fishing at the highest of the pro ams, this might be a reasonable investment. Not for me though, I still use primitive electronics that don't even come close to the down side scan stuff thats out now.

I'm not saying it doesn't work. Fooling fish into frenzy mode sounds at least plausible. My comments were basically about how they market it with a bunch of fake terminology.

On another note...when fishing becomes about flipping a switch, I'm done.

[gonefishin3]

Truth fully guys.... it works..... i know i know it looks like a gimmik and its supid sounding... Although i only think it works on cirtian condittions. I was fishing state tournament. there were 4 boats on the flat it was a huge flat way up north on the lake where no one else was fishing... we were over big schools of perch double tripple the size of a 20 foot boat. the boats would spread out (working as a team against eachother lol right?) and when we would "jack up the school" we would all work together and catch fish.. 99% of the time the guy that would jack up the school had a hydrowave on his boat.. we were dropshotting in 25-30 ft of water and it was pouring rain. He came in with 18 lb bag of smallmouth everyone else in the tournament had 9 lbs or less. THE ONLY conditions i think it works is when you find those big schools of baitfish... and i think you find these schools of baitfish in south texas more than anything. Although i wasent fishing south texas at the time i think that thats where these "sound immiting" devices shine... where they can jack up the school and load the boat in a short amount of time.

[pro reel]

I was watching river monsters once and they were using the hydro oar. It worked for them. They pulled up to an area and would slap the hydro oar on the water, the slapping sounds that eminated form the impedence free mahogany speaker imitated jumping fish and this in turn triggered other fish to get active. They should have gotten a patent on that.

PS, Don't let yourself get up a creek without one.

[nofearengineer]

The Hydro Oar...

ROFL.

[gonefishin3]

you can see fish on a screen now and throw to a bush 30 ft away and watch yourself reel in that fish... why couldent you call them in?

[kennethdaysale]

Does this count? As a selfish ignorant kid growing up in the rural south (where guns were always plentiful and just layin around unlocked) I would often climb a tree hanging out over the water and wait for a fish to swim under me and shoot it. I soon noticed that almost every time I shot one, more fish would RUSH to the point of impact from out of nowhere. So instead of just sitting up there for 30 min or an hour waiting on a random fish to show up I would wait just long enough for things to get quiet again and fire a round. Then pop the first fish or two that ran up to investigate.
Kind of a long explanation to pose the question of what's the deal with that? It's got to be a sound thing. At first I thought it must have been the sight of another fish going into that "death wiggle", or maybe something like the dominate tom syndrome..I've shot a tom and then watched one of his close rivals run up and kick his dying flopping A$$. But when it still drew fish after a shot in empty water that theory was shot.

***note*** i am well aware shooting fish is illegal, unethical and just plain wrong. This post is in no way meant to promote, condone or glamorize such activity, its just about the sound thing.

[gonefishin3]

ive done the same thing with a turkey... and truthfully guys i have not put a hydrowave in my boat yet... i still am unsure if its worth it.

I have nothing to add to the discussion, I just had to say that I'm still laughing over this statement.

Isn't this exactly what you do now when you step on your boat? Some how I think you probably have some pretty sophisticated electronics aboard. This is in no way meant to be critical rather, humorous!

LOL...good point. Luckily for me, my gear just makes my experience more fun...not more productive. Finding them doesn't make them bite. You can trust me on that.

[syd]

I read somewhere that and he and Jeff Kreit are the owners or in business together on these?

[Ranger Guy]

Its possible but I haven't heard that but even if not, he is now in the world of endorsements. Would he use it if he had to go out and buy it, ehh maybe, maybe not but if the company is paying enough for an endorsement then who wouldn't most likely give it a whirl. A paycheck helps to make up alot of minds unfortunately.

Here is a good example of the "Build it, and they will buy it" mentality. Link
And they are sold out of these things.... gulibility makes the world go round.

Scam artist or strategic business ploys???????? You decide.

[joedog]

Syd, Kriet and Kvd are sole owners of this piece of machinery.

[Crankbait]

It’s the 2nd addition of the biosonix Another toy….if you can afford it go for it

[bassinbob]

KVD is getting more like Roland Martin. I think I'll be carring a shotgun in my boat next summer.

[coldbasser]

i
I'm just amused by the old and new schools of thought on fishing. The 1 constant is how sellers try to pry cash out of customers by hook or by crook its all the same Some think its cool to have all the latest and greatest $$$$$$ toys. Dose that make them fisherman or caught fish?????
Just Sayin:conf used:

[joedog]

Looks new. Date says 11-16-11.
He dosn't get a bite, so you know it wasn't some staged commercial.
