I fished a Spheros8000 3 nights a week all season long.It got a dunking several times.Other than rinsing with fresh after every outing I did no other maintenance other than a midseason breakdown to degease and relube with superlube.The reel performed flawlessly.
I certainly don't put my equipment through the same rigors as some of you guys,if I did then the way the reel performed might have been different.
Even though I bought a 704 to put on my new 9ft Lami I still may end up putting a Spheros on it. I like the reels that much.
PS.Opinions are like buttholes,we all got one.Relax guys its way to early in the winter for this stuff to be starting yet.
