Spinnin reel suggestion

Shimano Stradic 2500 would be my first choice. For a little more, the new Daiwa ballistic is REALLY nice. Otherwise, I'd look at a Abu Garcia Revo Stx if you don't like Shimanos or Daiwas. For about $150, the Shimano Ultegra is really nice too.

 

In regards to size, stick with a 2500 if you're throwing 6-10lb mono line or 6-8lb flourocarbon. For braid, a 2500 handles everything up to 15lb nicely.

The Cabelas store brand Verano reel is the same as the prior generation Diawa Ballistic. It often goes on sale for  any where from $79-$111. The regular price is $150 and when it goes on sale it’s an awsome deal. 

 

I have Diawa Ballistics, Shimano stradics(although the ci4 is above your price range) and the Cabelas Verano and can recommend any of them.

They are light weight , drags no issues , handles good sized , plenty of drag & capacity ! There serviced out of NJ  & I believe the warehouse is there as well ! Used for  tog jig , Albies , Stripers etc . I own two sizes 2000 & 3500 .
