Don't even consider a Blast or surf
get the real Saltiga Z
if you are worried about dunking and don't need a bail or a smooth reel, then go with a van stall and take a chance but my experience with VS is the reel is too stiff for me and they tend to leak oil, that o ring is nothing impressive.
I love my saltiga z 6000gt, i use it mostly jigging the canal but I do get it wet on occasion on the beach or rocks elswehere. 2 seasons and it is fine, I don't abuse it like others do with their reels, but I only rinse it on occasion and twice a year oil the line roller. The drag is pissa, way better than any reel i ever used. I stooped a 600 pound seal with it once, must have had 25 lbs of drag pressure and the reel performed flawlessly, can't say the same for my line though.
