I own both a spheros 8000 and a VS 150. I'll be honest, the last few times out, the VS has become by back-up reel.

The Spheros handles braid much better and I prefer it when fishing eels b/c it has a bail and the VS does not. Plus, I have an extra spool for the spheros that I fill with mono - which I use alot this time of year in the rocks. I'll be brutally honest, the drag on the spheros is awesome and very smooth as is the VS.

I just add superlube inside the body and lubricant to the moving parts as stated above. I thnk the advise above will serve you well on your reel.

good luck
