Hard to beat the Shimano Tekota 600lc and the 700lc, I know they are a little pricey but you get what you pay for as they say.

I prefer the Okuma Convectors and their all-aluminum Cold Water reels over the Accudepths and Sealines. I've owned model 47 and 57 Accudepths (had 8 of them, I believe) and had line counter and non-line counter sealines. The Okumas are smoother on the retrieve and have large, comfortable handles. Yes, they may be a heavier reel, but they feel more robust and have better gear boxes, in my opinion. I sold all my Daiwa reels about 7 years ago and replaced them with the Okuma CV series. I now have size 15, 20, and 30. I've downsized since my early days of fishing, and prefer smaller reels now. For wire I would recommend the CV45D. That being said, I have friends who prefer the Daiwa product because they are lighter and perhaps more sensitive. Comes down to personal preference and what you are comfortable with cost-wise.
