Spheros will always be my #1 recommendation to anyone looking for the best bang for their buck.

The new Stradic feels more like a Sustain then the old Stradic. In fact if you like smooth it's tough to tell them apart.

I'm still a big Spheros fan as always, but the Stradic has potential to be un upgrade from the Spheros rather the downgrade it generally seemed to be before.

On a side note I was just digging around the Shimano website and there's place holders for two new reels in the "Saltwater Spinning Reels" category, the Saragosa and the Spheros FB.
