Accurate makes a nice smooth reel. Avet is a nice reel also and cheap. Avet has problems with their drags. Search the net for more specifics. Penns 30 vsx is another great choice if you are using braid with a top shot. Personally when jigging I use Penn's 16 VSX with 80 lb line 1 spectra with a loop to loop connection to 100 pound mono. Holds more than enough line to catch 99 % of the tuna encountered. I have 600 yards and a top shot on that reel. I killed a few 150-200 pond tuna with this set up this year. We also caught canyon fish (mahi, yft, and wahoo) trolling on that rod and use it to pull spreader bars when "small" people are on board on the bank and out east. It is light and has a great drag system. The 30vsx is another great setup and will hold 1000 yards of 80 jb line 1. If you have any questions pm me.
