OK. I think I have determined adequately that there have been very few mentions on these forums about the Van Staal Spinning Reels--lots of kudos for the Saltiga, the Twinspin, and even more for the Stella FA s. But, among the high-priced reels, nothing of a critical nature, either positive or negative, about th Van Staal 300 (except for one sort of negative comment about a "Van Staal with balls." Is the general feeling that they don't measure up for YFT, and if so, I would appreciate opinions. Personally I don't go for having to send them to the factory every year to keep the warranty in effect--I think that is what I heard.
Also, is the consensus of opinion that the FA U.S. version of the Stella 20,000 does or does not come with an extra spool. I have seen, for example, one counter to Rick's support of the Twinspin that you do get an extra spool for the less expensive Stella, but another post to the effect that only the Japanese reels come with a spare. Thanks.
