I agree, I had a 150, sold it and got a 200. Then bought a 250. Anyway, the 200 is the all purpose reel, it fits on 8', 9' & 10' rods nicely. If you want to go witha 150, then I would suggest a ZX22. I have this reel too, it's a tad bigger than the 150 and smaller than the 200. Goes well on of the rods I listed. What ever you do, go with the bailess, once you get the knack for it (takes a few casts) you'll never look at another bailed reel again!

Hey Mikey

I am looking in to the new Penn Torque 55 holds 300 yards of powerpro 50.

Only 20 O/Z looks sweet

Bailess kit is available

Just my 2 cents

Put your 2 cents back in your pocket Ed..

I have the VS150 on a 9 footer and it matches perfect.. I bought mine used at a good price.

yea im kinda leaning towards the vsb 150. On a 9'6. I feel the 100 is to small and the 200 is too big.

i have a 150 on a 9' and a 250 on a 10'(also use it on an 11'6" honey) and love them both. ask rickstillcasting about zeebass!!!!!!!....get him fired up. he was about the throw his in the water the other day.

What about the Zee Baas. I picked up a ZX25 in the spring after a successful weekend in Vegas.

I have only used a VS250 once and prefer the my reel.

I got the VS 250 and 200,So far they been good to me and jr.Also love my penn's also.. :.......:

lol ouch im with smitty on this one

I love my ZB25.

Plus, I think the warranty should be a deciding factor...

Chris

Get a 250 and have an all around reel for ever. I got mine in 83 and use it every day. Ask Red. I have 11 vs reels and my old one is the go to every time.

Thats a tough choice,,,china or usa?,,,,,,I am in line for the torque

WHAT THE IN H*LL IS A SBO POLICE

lmao Vall i said the same thing

I have a VS 200 and traded my VS 250 for a Z25 and love it I picked up a Z27 spool for it so I use the 27 spool on my lami GSB 1321M (11ft) and the 25 spool om my lami SSU 1201mhs (10ft) I think Iv used my VS200 once this fall lol

VS150 & VS200 is all you need Bro, my 150 goes on all my 9ftrs. and the 200's go on my 10 & 11ftr. You won't be disappointed w/a VS, tried and true.


Carlos

That is where the ZX 22 comes in. I wrapped a SSU 1201L and cut 6 inches off the butt. After it is all said and done it's the perfect jersey fall rod and 22 just put icing on the cake. There are some thing's you have to consider when buying a van staal. Yes there cheaper then a Z but, they are much stiffer to reel , there drag is inferior to the Z, there customer service blows. Zeebaas just released the "third gen" check them out they resolved the sand entering through the drag cap. I own a few Z reels some Gen 1's and Gen 2's. They had there issues but all have been resolved by Zeebaas. There customer service is the best. Good luck with your choice
