I sure would be bummed though, if it dripped oil after a month or some other problem. Send it back. & have to use my only back up reel (Okuma) thats got issues as well...

Thats what bothers me about VS, is all the small things. Its like owning a car. Where youve got to pay a big sticker price upfront & pay an annual cost ontop of it. And it may not always function when you need it. I would feel at the mercy of my reel.

& THE MAINTENANCE COST IS GOING UP OCT. 1 from 36 to $50...
