What I had a problem with, on the 850 and 750, was the line tangling around the line roller and bail pedestal. That's one reason I got in the habit of closing it by hand. The two 70 pounders ever landed from the shore were both taken on spinning reels, I don't think a well-functioning line roller is a problem. Steve Petri's 69, and the two biggest taken from the LI surf, a pair of 64s by Mark Malenovsky and Tom Rinaldi, were also taken on spinning reels.
