What price range are you looking at? I have the Saros 3000 and I really like it. I really only use it to throw poppin' corks, but it is my wife's primary reel. When I bought the Saros, it was the cheapest Shimano spinning reel that had the beveled edge on the spool. I forgot what the call this feature but I think it really helps let the line out smoothly. Now they added this feature to a bunch of their spinning reels, so if I had to do it again I would go with the Sahara.

I'd like to keep it somewhere around $200. If that's possible.

I got my brother in law a Stix spinning rod with a Shimano Stradic 3000.
It is a good combo. The Stradic is less than $200. I think it is around $140. But you can get some good spinning reels for a little cheaper. |

Symetre 3000 for about $100 or Sedona 4000 for about $60. With 30# powerpro for reds and a mono leader for specs. Either way u can't go wrong.

I have a Sahara and absolutely love it - think it was $80. The Stradic is fantastic, and Shimano recently came out with a Stradic CI4 that is the bomb!! CI4 is $200 and the regular stradic is about $170.
