I'm looking for a reliable but not expensive swimbait reel (around $100). If possible a low profile with a gear ratio of about 6:1. Of course I'm also interested in round reels. The reel will be used for baits up to 3oz. Thanks in advance.

I got a Citica 200 from TW taking advantage of the sale and the rebate, $70 bucks my man. It don 't get better than that.  

Shimano Cruxis for the low profile

Shimano Cadriff for a round reel

Thanks for the info guys! 8-)

I'm not much of a shimano fan. :-[ Are there any daiwas in that price range? What about okuma?

I have one of these. You can put a bunch of line on it. Shop around and you will find a much better deal on one. Just to give you an idea, I found mine for $37.00 shipped on eBay.

Daniel, if you are interested in this reel and can't find a seller to ship to you, I can get you one and ship it.  I don't know why people will not ship overseas, there's nothing to it.

daiwa td-z bbs (big bait series), but on a budget you could probably get a daiwa hsta for under $150 or curado 300 for under $200
