Under $100.00 the h20 express mettle is the bast reel period.If you're looking for $100.00 and up then the lews speed spool lfs is $100.00 and the best bang for the buck. I personally would stay away from the Abu Garcia max anything.

Although I've only been bass fish for 5 years, I tried a lot of $100 - $150 dollar reels and I'd have to say Lews has the best quality for the price.

Daiwa Lexa from ebay. I bought one new for $80 shipped. Fantastic reel for that price.

I would definetly get a Curado 200i with that price range. You can go on Amazon and eBay and even find them for around 140-150. Heck you could probably find a Chronarch Ci4 on Amazon or eBay for less than 200

Yessir I'd get 2 Lews Speed spools if buying new. Sometimes you can find the combo for that price as well. Check the interwebs and may be able to get some awesome deals! Good luck bud!
