I need a a new casting reel. I have an opening for two reels, but one would be for a rod i hardly use. there are so many options and Im overwhelmed. I have 218$ but would rather not spend all that. Im a lefty and need help on what to get. want the best deal

Buy something from a store with a good return policy and take it back if you don't like it.

You can get the Revo SX for under $100 now, Revo S for $80, Curado's are around $120, a sleeper would be on the 6/3 you can find reels like the Okuma Komodo for $100, Quantum EXO for $120, 

 

Lots of reels that are last years versions but new are on sale on auction site and regular sites.

 

BPS has the PQ for $79? Reliable good reel.

 

There are too many options, but for $100, even $70 you can find a Pflueger President XT, or a Lews BB1 for $100 or so.

 

If you fish saltwater at all, or just want a really good reel for bigger baits, more line etc..Daiwa Coastal blue reel with T-Wing is down to $150. 

 

Hard to beat the Daiwa reels and the pricing for all models right now. Same with the Abu Garcia reels, The Gen 3 I guess were not "As good as earlier versions according to some, but for $119 the STX at Cabela's is a really nice reel. 

 

Check out the Duckett 360 reels, They are going on auction in both white and black every day for $100 to $120. They sell for $200 Plus and feel like a $200+ reel, reviews are great, plus they look awesome. People don't search for certain brands like Ardent, Browning, Duckett, and often Okuma reels get overlooked. The Komodo is my favorite baitcaster and I paid $200 for it 3 years ago, The new ones with the Power Handle, Stainless Steel Frame, super light with power is what I want next, Held one a few weeks ago, they are tough to find for under $179 though. I use alot of Okuma stuff and I prefer the Komodo over the Helios etc..For $100 that is a steal. They are still making the "Older version".
