Spinning Reel question

[F16ENGMGR]

I prefer Shimano reels because of the no-fail bail spring and like any with 6+ ratio.

I have a sahara now, it run me around $50-$60 it is a medium sized and had worked fine but after 2 years of heavy workload it is going down on me, so I want to pick up a couple reels to alternate between. I tried a mitchel because they used to be a great reel but I was severely disappointed and that reel is used only if my shimano breaks down or I throw a jerkbait.

Shimano makes the best spinning reels but you get what you pay for with the top of the line Stella 600.00 it will outlast a dozen cheaper Shimanos . the next best is the Shimano Substain around 250.00 & again if you fish a lot buy the best you can afford & fish trouble free & money ahead in the long run. jmho
