Don't know if it's too small or too light but I've been loving my shimano nasci 5000

Been fishing it lot since last Albie season, taken a bunch of solid fish on it.

Nice reel for about $100

The new daiwa bg is a solid reel for the $$ and the tsunami shield is looking like another option.

Sounds like a Clammer thread.....

I have the Nasci in the 1000 size and it is a very impressive reel for the money.

Shimano Spheros seem pretty good, right around you price

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Grab a low end daiwa that you can upgrade the drag washers.

Or next step up.

Easily capable of greasing a 60# yellowfin.
