Sammy is on the money I rate stradics as good value for the price I might go a bit bigger than the 2500 if your chasing tailor and you find your self attached to a mulloway

 the sienna is the best of the 'cheap crap' reels in my opinion. Look at it this way, the sienna will last a couple of years of heavy use where the stradic might last 4 or 5.

How in the world did you kill a stradic in 6 months ..going on 6yr's with mine and I treat her mean ?!Still one of the smoothest reels in my collection.

What actually failed ? as you will get warranty cover in that short space of time.

the diawa sol 2500 is a good reel but my luvias is heaps smoother. I think that the stradic might have a bit more drag preasure for its size.

sieanna is the cheapest crapest reel karl. I would go the shimano stella 20,000, jigging master power spell pe10 or if that to cheap, than go Zebco Dora the Explorer Floating Spincast Youth Fishing.
