Sullie,


I primarily use a Penn Levelwind 209 or the new 320LD with a lever drag for trolling. The new lever drag reels are pretty slick so I would suggest going to a shop and checking them out personally.
For mooching, and somtimes trolling, I also use a Shimano M-ONE Knucklebuster which is a blast; holds 500 yards of 20lb Mono. No 4 or 6:1 ratios on this reel, just pure 1:1 you and the fish...

What a battle when you get a hot headed Coho or Nook on the other end with that setup! fishy banana


Nice thing about centerpin reels are thier simplicity. Very few moving parts to clean and really easy to thoroughly rinse after fishing.
