$100 is a though working limit. I'd stay away from the walmart specials because they will definately cost you more in the long run, I wouldn't be surprised if one decent fish completely destroys one of those reels, never mind if it gets dunked. There are options out there were you could spend around $180-$200 that would last you for years of tuff use. I'd go with a Z series and tica if I were you and if you can find a way to pay alittle more.

If you're gonna go with the Z series, I'd get the 706 if you're willing to go with a manual bail. New 704s and 706s are gonna run you over $100 though. Another thing to do is keep your eye on the classified page on this board and the other similar sites, quality used products are gonna serve you better than cheap new ones.
