The Pfleuger President is durable and affordable. I compared it's performance with higher priced reels and found it to be as smooth for most casting situations.

What kind of fish are you going to be fishing for. If it is anything other than catfish, I can't help. But if you are catfishing, go to the new Salt striker from Cabala's. It has a line out feature that lets line out if you get a hard hit and has a switch you flip that sets it to your drag setting to set the hook. This is a very new feature to spinning reels and they cost about 60 bucks. Only draw back is the severl weeks backlog of orders they have. This reel is selling very good because of this new feature. I bought 2 and will be buying 2 more.

Stick with Shimano's. What is up with your pic of Rosey? she is a terrorist. thanks for the info. i may have to try okuma's line of spinners. i just bought an okuma SVT fly reel that im in love with. the drag is top notch. Foulplay, Thanks alot, now I'll have to see a pig getting slaughtered to get that picture out of my head.

I'd also suggest checking out the Okuma Avengers, the Okuma Epixors, and the Shimano Baitrunners, all available at Cabelas as well. I believe the Salt Strikers may actually be manufactured by Okuma as well, so they are definitely solid reels.
