I've been planning on using a Phenix Recon Elite PHX-C796H for Glide Baits up to 2 1/2 oz. It's 7'9", 14-35lb, Fast. 
Any Reel/Line Suggestions? I'm a Shimano fan and was leaning towards either a Curado 200K or a Shimano Tranx 300 (since the Curado 300 is impossible to find new) Also a fluoro fan, but open to braid. 
Any input would be appreciated. Thank you

    I have 2 both paired with a Lew's super duty wide spool. One with 50lb braid for my topwater swimbaits like the Nez rat and the punkers. The other with 25lb Izorline XXX smoke color for glides and bullshads. Love that rod!

    I'd probably put one of zillion hd reels in it.  Or a tatula 150 for  more conservative budget.
