$$$- Van Staal, Daiwa Saltiga, Zeebass, Shimano Stella.

$$- Daiwa Saltiga Surf, Shimano Stradic, Finnor Ahab.

$- Penn slammers, Penn 704Z,Daiwa BG Series.

Have owned every reel listed above except Zeebass. They all work very well for their respective price ranges. If you are gonna splurge, I would go with a VS200 or Daiwa Saltiga z4500 for surf fishing. The Saltiga fishes like a wet dream.......smoooooooooth(sorry) and has a great drag. The VS is built like a bulldozer, has a great drag, and can be submerged.
