shamnio and diawa have great reels too. but i have been loving my quantum optic 30 for bass to salmon. instant anti reverse i only paid 18.75 for it at meijers here in michigan. the reel retails for 35 i think. check threw some the clearence sections in the sporting goods sections at walmarts / k marts / meijers. that if there around you. see if you can find a good smoth reel. with anti reverse and a heck of a lot of ball bearing that makes it smooth. and the correct line size rating like 50yards of 8 pound test would be wrong for salmon but mite be o.k. for bass. i just can't see spending 100 on a real when clearence iteams are so abunant. it's a high quality reel at a lower then avrage price.
