[B]I've fished the sphero's as well... but your talking apples and oranges now... if you can afford the Spheros get it, if you want 2 axeon's or 1 Axeon and 1 Inspira do that.. heh... the okuma's are about 1/2 the price of the shimano's all day long.

Actually the Axeon runs about $30 more than a Spheros of comparable size.I was actually looking at this reel as a backup to a Spheros or vice/versa depending on which performs better.Since I've never had a problem with my Spheros its not a pressing issue.It was more just thought since I spoke with that fellow at the airport.
