If you have a wild hair and want to try something new while not spending a whole lot of $, then go to Academy and buy an H2O Express Mettle reel. Sells for $49.99. You will be shocked and sooo not disappointed. I carry Shimanos and Abu Garcia REVOs and the performance is about the same. Longevity is still up in the air. I was highly impressed for the money.
