I want a VS!!! I'm envious of those who have them...
OK - I've said it...I feel better now
It is a lot of money.....but so what? Surfcasting is a cheap hobby. No boat to park, no boat gas to buy.
Many of the best active fishermen I've come across swear by them.
When you couple a VS with a good synthetic line, or a new-generation mono (like Yo-Zuri Hybrid) you really got some stopping power.
Guys can now throw thirty and fourty pound test (and up) with spinning. And if they hook into the fish of lifetime, they don't have to worry about losing the fish due the historical shortcomings of spinning.
I like my Penn, but I've felt how the drag comes off and I'm aware of how much maintainance it requires when I fish hard.
