Quick Exquisite several years ago from Cabelas for about $40 but I don't think they sell them anymore... I am extremely happy with it for the price and it has landed numerous carp over 20lbs and plenty of channel cat too. If you do a quick Amazon search, I think there are several options on there and the reviews are generally a reliable means to determine quality. Just happy to be here.

Personally I would put the Penn and Shimano over Okuma just based on the other models I've used in the past. I've not been a big fan of Okuma stuff, but I know others like it.

The spinners with bait runner are what I'm not sure about as I would think the runner function is a bit more complicated and consequently more prone to failure. Anyone tried the Diawa's http://www.sniperstrappingplace.com/tmansearch.php

They're susceptible to dirt/coronation issues, and most saltwater environments also have a lot of air born sand that can jamb them up.
