They should catch 99.9% of your spam. I personally only use Akismet; if you want even more, you can do Akismet and Bad Behaviour. They should catch 99.9% of your spam.

I only recently switched to using WP's native commenting, from the Haloscan comments I used to use; so most of the spam I get is of the trackback spam variety. STBV has been incredibly effective in thwarting it. Thus far, with comment moderation enabled, along with Akismet and my own modified implementation of Math Comment Verification (I replaced the text "Spam protection: Sum of" with an image), I haven't had a single comment spam even make it into moderation (sample period of approximately two weeks).
