How much do you want to spend?
Mike at M&Ds has some Daiwa Beefsticks that are strong as hell and ridiculously cheap. You can use the savings to splurge on a reel. If you don't need a levelwind, the Daiwa Saltist is a good choice. Mike sold a lot of them to the commercial guys for yo-yoing. Or you can talk to Mike about a custom. The same blanks he uses for yo-yo rods should work for what you want.
