As far as inexpensive reels go I have had VERY good success with the Phlueger Trion reels. Have 3 in the 20 size and one 35 size. Some reviewers say they are better than their 100 dollar reels. Haven't had a problem yet and one of the 20s has went with me in the salt quite a bit as a bait catcher rod and has held up well. http://www.pfluegerfishing.com/Pflueger®-Trion®-Spinning-Reel/1313958,default,pd.html
