I use a 250 on my 10' rods, really like the balance. It works on my 9'er, but seems a little more awkward. I rarely seem to use my 9, so the 250 works best for me.

I guess if you want one VS for both the 200 is the way to go... But personally, I like the extra line capacity on the 250. Can double for a tuna reel as well if need be- don't think the 200 would have the capacity for that. Nice if you ever get an invite out on a friends boat- spool it with JB60 and you're golden.

Good luck- I don't think you can go wrong with either.
