Jed,
If you can find some Daiwa Regals, they are excellent reels for not a ton of money. I have a one Regal-C, one Regal-X, and three Regal-Zs and I haven't had a whit of trouble with them. You can't go wrong with the Shimanos either. The Saharas may be in your price range. I have a couple of Shakespeare Cateras that have also been trouble-free. Most of these reels are under $50, much less if you can find them on sale. If you want to test-drive some of these reels, let me know when you're going out and I can meet you somewhere.
