I have a Spheros 6000FB and use it early in the season. It's been dunked and dropped in the sand by mistake and I've never had a problem with it after a quick fresh water rinse. It's landed plenty of good size fish and I've never had a problem with the drag or felt like I was overmatched at all. I'm looking to pick up an 8000FB this winter as another extra backup to a ZB.
I've never used the Diawa, but OD Mike has one and I've seen him cast a mile and catch a bunch of fish with it. It seems really smooth, too. If I don't go with another Spheros, I'll probably look into the Emblem Pro as the extra backup.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
