X4 on the Penn Battle. I have a couple of 3000 on medium action Tsunami rods that work the jigs perfectly when there is no current/drift. Not a bad reel for under $100.

Penn Battle 4000 - just pickedd mine up and used it today on a party boat - Angler - they also have 1000,2000 and 3000's depending on the size you are looking for - great drag and handled a really big skate with no problems

Re: fluke spinner
 

Stradic FJ 3000, look around you'll find it for about 130.

Normally I pay little attention to feature lists...but the FJ's "x-ship" really makes this reel a winch, by far the easiest spinning reel I've used to crank in fish and 3 oz jigs all day in fairly deep water.

Battle 4000!!!!!

Re: fluke spinner
 

Penn Battle , Cabo 30, would be my choice in that price range. But, if you want to go cheaper, look at the Okuma Trio for @ $80 - $95. Its high speed, has a ton of drag and the spool is good for distance. The Okuma would be nice for jigs with over 30" on the retrieve. You dont need a ton of capacity, and if using braid, this reel is more than enough.

Re: fluke spinner
 

I have a CABO and a BOCA , both are quality, BOCA is a little less in $$. Find it to be light enough in weight and strong enough for the fish....
