I have a few shimano citicas that I don't have a bad word about. It's a good starting point. Search around for deals might find a Abu Garcia Revo SX as they are a bit more but can be found

Grabbed a Lews Speed Spool for $99. Absolutely awesome reel for the money. It was a toss up between the Lews and an Abu ProMax.

I was surprised, had never heard of them before just on the internet, but they hype was right.

+1 on the Revo STX - the entire Abu Garcia line is good (I own most of them) but the STX is rock solid.
