Saw Academy has a Skeet Reese high speed for $99. Anyone tried it? Any other good high speed reels under $150?

You can sometimes find a REVO SX on sale for about $150. Definitely my pick.

I use Revos on everything buy my cranking rod. For that, I have the Curado 200e5. I like it better than the Winch.

I've got a W&M Skeet Reese victory in 7:1LH. I haven't had it long but first impression is it's OK, still like my Revo's better.

I have read nothing but bad reviews on the skeet reels. Saying that they loud and rough but don't know that first hand.

I'll also add that I haven't measured the line retrive per handle turn, but it seems slower than my 6.4:1 revo's

I'd say Revo or Citica. Also, I bought an H20 Mettle a few weeks back just to see if they were any good. Didn't really have any intention on the reel lasting me very long. Well, that Mettle is one of the toughest reels on my deck. Very smooth, good drag, good braking system, and you can get 3 for the price of 1!!
