Go with the 50's - better to get a smaller fish in quick, than to wish you had the right gear for a good fish.
Used Penn or Shimano are a better alternative than one of the price point brands. A quality reel will last you 20+ years, I doubt any of the cheapo's will be around that long.
If Fin-Nor gets their new 50's out to market this season - they are worth looking at also - I really liked the prototypes.
