off route II (2/17/2009)i've got a closet full of VS of all different sizes and i've had some ofthem for a lot of years. never had to send one back and never had an issue. i see people posting on here about sending them back, what goes wrong with them and what am i to expect sooner or later?

These were my experiences with VS, im not saying they are all like this ...just in my case they were, just like with anythingpeople have good and bad experiences

Freespool (2/17/2009)One ot my buddies got a Zeebass last year and I was very unimpressed with it

what made you unimpressed with the Zeebaas?

Our friend purchased the biggest one they make and he had a few problems with it from the begining. The spool would rub up aginst the body of the reel and cause the drag to stick and the rubber rings on the handle also fell off after a short time of use. I think he sent it back in and they replaced the part that rubbed.

Another thing i didn't like about it was the drag nob being the whole top of the reel i couldn't get used to that and every time i would go to move the manuel i would adjust the drag.

i would agree that the drag is easy to adjust, i havent accidentally bumped it yet but i will keep my eye on the rubber handle..
