We use penn 113H and TLD20s, I just got the TLDs 2 years ago and no complaints. The penns I have had for at least 20 years and other than new washers and cleanings they still work like the day I got'em.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day ...
show him where to fish and ... you'll be sorry

I use penn GTI 330s. These have level wind so when you have noobies on the boat they can't mess up.

hold plenty of line and built with penn quality.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

Line capacity is short for my preference in trolling, I believe its around 275/30 vs. 450 - 475/30 in the TLD 20's and the 113h's but Hell, the reels are classics and from a durability standpoint they are proven.
