Conventional Reels

Looking for opinions.

I went to BPS a couple weeks ago and was impressed with the Daiwa Saltiga and was wondering if anyone has experience with them. I'd like to get a reel basically for striper fishing 99% of the time but I always wished I had a reel that could handle a very occasional trip offshore for bluefin. I bought a Penn 330GTI this year and the drag was junk by the end of the year from fishing stripers. It's pretty obvious to me that a bluefin would go through that reel in seconds.

I don't think I'd use them enough to go through the expense of buying Tiagra's or Internationals for just a couple trips offshore a year, but I want something a little sturdier than the 330.

I've heard that the Trinidads are nice reels too.

Just wondering what you guys think. Thx.
