I like my Calcutta 400. Less capacity and distance than an abu 6500 but a much better drag.

You'll love the calcutta and its unmatched drag. IMHO its the best reel you can buy for the money. Smooth and reliable. It has been my go to reel (400)for years. Enjoy the reel.

I just got a (slightly used)700S in perfect condition off E-bay for $92.00 I can't wait to use it!!! I got it for casting to sbft and pitch baites to white marlin. Although I must admit, I'm gonna need some practice casting a conventional.
