Save some cash and Go with a Shimano Symetre reel......Picked one up last year and am very happy with it. Butter smooth and the price tag was around $60.

Symetre FJ

Paired it up with a 6.6' St. Croix Triumph spinning rod and the whole setup ran me about $120

St. Croix Rods - Triumph

There's something to be said for an ugly stik too.......pretty solid rod for under $40.
