Baitcaster reel suggestion

[ekbk]

Happy New Year to all
Have anyone have used low profile baitcaster reel for inshore\offshore bottom fishing (fluke, tog, SB, etc.)? Any suggestions? I am currently using round Shimano Calcutta 200GTB but it is giving up on me (over 10 y.o.)
Thanks

Few good reels in the ABU GARCIA line up .
Revo toro beast 50
Revo beast low profile 40
Revo toro S 50

THE 40 is the smallest but has the most drag at 30#.
Just started fishing it this fall, pretty sweet reel

The goto baitcasters for what you asked about have been the Daiwa Lexa HD 300 or the Shimano Tranx 300. Both are built like tanks, have over 20lb of drag and hold enough line to do anything we do inshore.

Could it handle smooth retrieve of 8-16 oz weight from 200 ft depth?
I used to have one low profile Quantum (gift) few years ago - was unable to retrieve even 2 oz Spro
Thanks

Lexa 400, no problem.

Thank you

Daiwa lexa 300 can handle any inshore species including tog & stripers. I have one and am very happy with it. I put the power handle on it (Thanks MrAC)

I also have the smaller Lexa 100 but there's not enough drag on that one so it's best used for freshwater or weakfish (if you can find one).

Ive been using the Okuma Komodos for past 2 years....both the small version, KDR 273 & the larger KDR 364. I love them both. Smooth action...enough power for Fluking or togging. They're lightweight and made very well. Personally I Love em.
