any of these reels will be great for steelheading. I dont know anything about saltwater so i will refrain from commenting on that.
My favorite of the above reels it the bauer even though it's a little over the 200 mark i think its worth it.. but they are all great reels. dont agonize over the decision too much any of these ree; makers will take care of you with any problems you may have, and you wont have any trouble with any of them.
pick the one you like
