I own several Spheros. All cast exceptionally well/far distance. My only complaint is once infiltrated by saltwater, it's only a matter of time before fatal bearing corrosion sets in. Mike T at M&D's helped me out 2 years ago with my 6000 but it is probably a goner for this season.
1. 4000 on a 6' Tica - my schoolie set up but has taken some decent high teens fish.
2. 5000 on a 6'Tica - a little more power and drag, same use as above.
3. 6000 on a 7' Tica - This is my primary boat rod when vertical jigging or casting. I sometimes use this same reel on my lighter 9' Tica for casting topwater. Has handled fish into the low thirtys.
4. 8000 on a 9' Custom - Great plugging setup.
5. 12000 on a 8' Penn Slammer - Great boat trolling set up.
Hope this info helps.
