[QUOTE="Mpd165, post: 183052, member: 4060"] The best advice I can give you is dont go cheap or you will spend more time trying to adjust it and pick out birdsnests than fish and you'll get frustrated and drop it. I have a friend who went through three shakespeare baitcasters before he just gave up and stuck with spinning. For the price he paid he could have gotten a decent baitcaster. I use H20 Mettles from academy and have nothing but good things to say about them. If you catch them on sale you can get them for $25 a piece. I dont believe there is a better reel for that price out there. If your willing to go up to $100 I would look for a Citica or Revo S as others have said. See what feels better in your hand and go with it. I dont think you can go wrong with either one. [/QUOTE]
