I still wouldn't not consider a Saltiga though, there's a lot of happy users out there. It's not my home territory, but the Canal is a spot where I hear the Saltiga has become a very popular choice.

We were talking about it in the shop a month or so ago. Back Beach and Ed B brought up something I never really considered, they both really like a smooth reel since they use the reel to feel a hit as much as the rod.

I always have my rod tip high, so the tightness most Van Staals have when cranked has never really been a factor for me.

The fact you wetsuit and are concerned about submersion might be something that points to sticking with the VS though.
