The Shimano Baitrunner reels are excellant plugging reels as well. I find that since I use the super braids most of the time now in saltwater that its easier for my to flip the BR feature on to pull out line instead of trying to grap the braid with my hands and cutting myself with the line.
Mr Sandman: FYI - Shimano makes the Thunnus (tuna) series of bait runner spinning reels. These start around $220. I know a charter boat captain that loves the Thunnus for small/medium sized tuna.
