I'll second that. I like the old school stuff... I have an ancient greenie 710 that is like new. It is perfect for the schoolies that around this time of year. Easy to keep up and strong- it is a simple reel and it doesnt break.

For new stuff on the cheap, Okuma does make decent stuff. I haven't tried the Shimano's, but obviously people like them.
