You should be able to get a batson rainshadow SY 1209 for relatively small money compared to the Lamis. Its really just for jigging from about 3 to 6 OZ. Below 3 its useless. Its especially good for spinners IMO. I think all the reels that will hold about 300 yards of 50+ braid should be OK at the Canal. the spinners have such big drags usually that is line capacity that limits you in size. Now a snoopy reel won't do but any of the models mentioned here should be fine.

Now I also lie the ARRA 1205 for the canal , I jig 3 OZ most of the time and 4 the rest. I do on rare occasions go 5 but if I know uts a honking current and I will be doing 4 and 5 , I use my century Tip Tornado light.

On a budget though , I think the batson rainshadow SU 1209 is worth looking at.
