I absolutely love the Mitchell Avocet. If I had to choose one
spinning reel under $50 this would be it. My kids bought me my first
one as a birthday gift a couple of years ago. For the money I think
it's impossible to beat. I don't like the super cheap reels ($9.99 at
Wal-Mart) but I think for most uses you don't need to spend more than
what one of these runs.
