Take a look at the Diawa Regal Z or the Regal X 2500's . Both great reels for the money .Very smooth drags , good capacity and they have a large diameter spools so they cast a mile. Plus they line does not hang up in the bail when you cast .

I have two Okuma Epxior's . Both spools blew up .I did not know that they were two piece spools until they both fell apart two days apart from each other .
