Call tw get a price match ... In the long run you will be much happier, also keep in mind that you can get diawa fuego's for near 100 in the flea market. Buy a reel from a reel maker not a NASCAR naton wal-mart.

I have a Citica and a Quantum Code, both great reels.  I've had 2 revo s reels, IMO there are way better options, both were stiff and didn't cast very well.  of those I have had, I'd say go with the Citica, great reel and the Shimano VBS is one if not the best centrifugal braking systems made.  Once you get it set right, it can be very good to you.

I know that recommending Shimano pigeon holds you but I'm far from a fan boy, I have reels form all the manufacturers that matter  ;) (Daiwa, Shimano, Pflueger, and Abu).  I have really found myself to gravitate toward Daiwa and Shimano. 

The PQ would be a great choice though.  I don't have one but have fished a lefty, for a minute, it's not for me.  It feels, casts, and retrieves very well.  The dual braking is a great starter tool, have two Patriarchs and a Supreme, over time it's pretty much added weight but comes in handy in a pinch without the hassle of opening up the reel.
