Hi there scoob.
Again, the performance of my reel is good just... Oh ya, I'm embarrased to have to admit I spent about $100 to buy this reel. It too was bought for medium duty, Southern California style surf fishing. (no need to cast over 50 or 60 feet) We use lots of plastics, croc's, etc.
Good luck on your search, hang around, others may want to put their two cents in.
