ooooooooh, right up my alley, QD. For all purpose, the 229. Its about the same size as an abu 7000, but the newell is a real man's reel, no levelwind.

Numbskull uses one all the time. I love it because I can hear where he is in the pitch dark. Newells have a real distinctive sound. WHRRRRRR!!!!!!

Tough reels.
Why even try.........

Flap,

You failed to mention that on the retrieve it sounds like a coffe grinder, at least mine do. I love them though.

A P220 or P229. I like the 229 the best, especially if using mono.
