Re: What would be a good reel for ?

The Abu Garcia Revo SX is a great reel. It's light, great drag, holds plenty of line, very well priced, smooth and fits very nice in the palm of the hand. Go with the 7:1.
Retail is $159 I believe but you can shop around and find sales here and there on them.

I know you're asking about used units, but West Marine is having a Black Friday sale and are advertising the Hook 7 for 37% off... seems like a pretty good deal.
