Shimano spheros is sweet and under your price range. however the slammer is good real and extremely easy to service yourself.

I switched to Daiwa Advantage's this year and like them better than my Stradics - not that I wont still use them too.

And Ive fished others Slammers and like them - ya got three great reel there!!! I plan picking up a slammer for a Lami 1084 Im building now. I want to alternate a Daiwa Advantage 4500 and A Slammer on it till I see which one I like better.

My first 3500 was broken in on a 55lb black drum on 12lb trilene. 40 minute fight on the Delaware Bay. Its had a dozen albies since and plenty of bass. No issues. Picked up 2 more the next day - one for the wifey.
Ride the spiral to the end...............
