the question you have with the VS line is how the models fit your style and rod selection.

the VS150 and VS250 are all I use.


The VS200 is a good all around reel for 9 to 10 footers, but the 150 is better on the 9 and smaller rods used for eeling (IMHO) where the bigger reel size reel will not help getting more distance sling those slimy critters and VS250/VS275 is what most beach guys go with for distance on 11 footers and longer.

I agree with the upgrading the reel seat as well.

the full moon looks orange sometimes when it rises because the light has to pass through more of the atmosphere then when the moon is higher in the sky. the blue light waves scatter but the red light waves pass through...... if you were wondering.
