I have both of the Okuma models which have the "baitrunner" feature. They are sealed pretty tight and come with extra gaskets. They have held up very well this season and I would highly recommend them. The prices are very reasonable right now compared to all the other reels with similar functions.

I won the Okuma Avenger spinning reel in the MSBA tournament earlier this year, and I've really taken a liking to it. It's help up fairly well, and is smooth all around. It's currently on my "loaner" rig, and everyone who's used it has liked it as well. Plus, I think it sells for about fifty bones.
