I'm getting one for this season. And I'll be picking it up at SWE - they've been nothing but solid to me and everyone else I know.

I want to thank Pete for resolving a 4 year old issue. Solid in my book! I was actually taken back by his professional responses and promptness once the facts were straight. Thank you! There will be a $100 gift card to the SWE at TCTFN on me.

SWE = good peeps

As for the question about the reel. I wouldn't recommend it. For a few more dollars you can pick up a used VS. or if you'd like to save a some money pick up a Saragosa. The Saragosas are bullet proof and easy to service.

I actually have a Saragosa 8000. It is an awesome reel and never had an ounce of trouble with it. I was looking for something smaller and came across this when I was shopping at #^&#^&#^&#^&s. More of an inshore/light tackle reel for schoolies. Still do not really want to spend $400 on an ocasional use reel. I think what I have is fine for now and I will concentrate my efforts on a larger VS for the surf.

Thanks for all the input guys.

I was having lunch at work way back when Bryan Cox was playing for the Patriots back in 2001, I think. We were talking about how well they were playing and without thinking, I said, way too loudly "I love Cox". The cafeteria got pretty quiet for a few seconds until a guy from my department started cracking up. Of course, the Senior VP of HR was sitting at my table.
