I would go with a cheaper shimano before a prion. I picked up a Shimano Sedona 4000 a couple of years ago for my light tackle duty and i am very happy with it. The drag is great caught some keeper bass and some Alligator blues on it and the drag worked perfect. It is also still smooth no grinding of gears. I am not gonna knock the Prion since i have never used it but I think a shimano would be a better bet. I dont care all that much for penn reels anyway I had a 6500ss break while reeling in a big blue The handle got all stripped out and would not stay in the reel It sounded like crap anyway I think the gears were going. The only penn I have in working order now is my 4500ss which i would trade for a 6000 shimano series of any value. Well and i got a penn 320GTI which will see almost no action.
