I bought a Spheros 8000 since my 4500 baitrunner has been flawless for about 15 years now. I haven't had a problem with the 8000 but I know someone that has, and he was told that it is not a completely sealed reel. I would think that using it in the surf could be a problem. I don't use mine in the surf so I really wouldn't know.
