I use a Quantum Antix. It has a Flipping Switch which I really like.

Revo anything. Maybe not winch with the slow gear ratio though.

If you dont need much line, I really like the curado 50E (or a core if you've got the budget) I've heard very good things about the Shimano Castaic too but thats discontinued now.

Something with high strength drag, and high speed. You won't always be flipping next to the boat. You will also want to pitch 10 yards or so. I think the Lews tournament reel pro series is the best reel going right now. Excellent bearings/cast ability. Excellent drag system (carbon fiber). Very lightweight, and fits the palm of your hand very nicely. Price shop, cause you can find them new on eBay for used prices.

Most of the high speed Revos work well. I like their lockdown drag system.

Revo's are great. The Lew's super duty is a beast also, whether you are using braid or flouro.


Some folks say that fishin on a Sunday is a sin, but if a fish bites my line, you know I'm gonna reel him on in!

I'd look into an Abu Garcia Revo. They have good models to choose from, and they hold up to the abuse. I have a Revo SX and a Revo STX and they perform very well. I'll soon be purchasing a Revo MGX, and I can't wait
