Thanks for the input, but I have decided to save a little more and get a nice left handed baitcaster for flipping and pitching.

Sorry

Well...I hope that's not going on a spinning rod

Three pages to get here?   :

Yup, everyone convinced me of what I already knew.  

I don't need a new spinning reel, but I do need a nice left handed baitcaster, or 2.

And no, it's not going on a spinning rod.  

RW: I think this could be referred to as 3 pages to the wind. ;D ;D

I'm looking to buy a spinning reel that will not cause severe line twist.  

I would like to spend less than $150.00 on the reel.

Any suggestions?

Before you buy the LH baitcaster think about palmming the reel. I'm right handed and if I cast with my right hand I have to hold on to the reel with my left hand so that I can release my grip with my right hand so that I can palm the reel with my right hand when I crank with my left hand. I know this sounds confusing but give it a try. I think you will find that it takes less steps to use a RH reel. I would suggest getting a RH reel with a Flipping switch.

JMHO

Well, so much for that idea.

Today the fuel pump and battery in my car went.

No new reel for me :'( :'(

The real world sucks sometimes!!!!!!!!!

Shimano Stradic 2500 FI.  Bought mine off ebay for $125 shipped.  Its a great reel and very smooth.
