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.

I've got the slammer 560, had it about 5 years. Been dunked quite a few times which has corroded some internal parts. I picked up a spheros this year which I like better. Much smoother drag.

I picked up a Stradic this year and love it. Pretty much use it 90% of the time now.....Great Reel and its in that price range. Going to pick up a 2nd one in the off season.
