Shimano Sienna 4000. You can pick one up in BCF's latest catalog with a sonic pro rod combo for $69, works out that you get the rod in the combo for about $10, the reel by itself normaly costs aroud $59. I swear by these reels, the best cheapies on the market IMO.

 Hey mate, i have 2 of the 2500/3000 arids and highly rate them. Comes with a dual spool, and the drag is real nice. Best for its price range in my opinion

i have bought a sienna mates combo pack with the sonic rod defiently the best combo for the price.

my mate spent a bit more on the daiwa aird combo and not the biggest fan. very sticky drag and no where near as smooth as a sienna... thats my opinion anyway.
