The one important thing is look at the line roller on Diawa's. They make some really smooth reels, but often just stick a plain metal bushing into the line roller.
Diawa’s entire line is equal or better than most manufactures at the price point you’re looking for. Compare $20 reels to $20 reels and $300 to $300 to be a legitimate comparison.
I'd fish one of these https://www.daiwa.com/us/contents/reels/qz750/index.html probably get one next season
Thanks for that link, just ordered one from FishUSA! I love my 500’s but they are a little small for some of my fishing.
