Have a look at the Okumas - brilliant even for SWFF in the UK. Well within your budget with spare spools!

I have been impressed with my Koma Kassettes. Nice reels.


If I still had my choice, I would probably still take a reel and just spools as it simply does take longer to insert a new cassette than slip on a new spool.

The greys x-flite is an excellent reel. The 7/8 is approx £95 and comes with a few spare cassettes.

Seems there are lots out there, The Orvis rocky mountain is the only 7/8 I've used, excellent reel. But I suppose all the one's mentioned here are good. How about that bit extra and go for the Hardy Demon, I use the large one for pike fishing love it.
