AGREE: A VSX 150 is a new reel in my quiver this season. Part of a neat, light setup (still with balls) for sand beach type fishing.

However, the drag click sound is so loud as to be almost obnoxious. I grew up in an era when we used to deliberately remove the click springs, rub wires, etc., from our Mitchell 302's, and Penn 704's, so we could hook up, and slip down the beach, lights off, with nobody the wiser.
