Up until a few years ago I thought the same thing. Then I got one and my thoughts changed. No other reel has been able to do what this reel can do period. When wading out to a bar or rock I use the rod as a staff totally submerging the reel. This is the only reel to be able to survive so far.

Can you bury the spheros in the sand. Then dig it up and rinse it in the ocean and expect it to perform. I doubt it...........
