Wow, got into work this AM and can't believe all the responses.

Question on the reels. How do the ones you guys recommended stand up to abuse. I currently have an Okuma Epixor EB65 and its a great reel functionally but its only 3 months old and it looks like I've had it 10 years. Fishing on the rocks has really taken a toll on it. I've checked out the Penn reels and they look like they can take some abuse from the rocks but how about the Stradic or the Mitchell. How do they take the abuse?

Thanx for all of the info...this is awesome.

Capesam I may take you up on that offer but it might be awhile. I got the approval on the budget but I'm still waiting for "Finance" to cut the check.
