I have used 30 and 50 but I like the 50 better. I don't use much backing at all maybe 10-15 yards just enough to cover the spool and keep the line from spinning on the spool. Don't worry about the extra 35 yards... if a fish takes you far enough to get to the end of the stradic spool he's going to take that extra 35 yards too. Looking at he spheros.. it would seem to me to be a 1 year reel if you fish hard. And if it doesn't have anti-corrosion bearings.. that salt water will be licking it's chops... for your tasty bearings.
