Default Re: Recommendation for deep water high speed reel

I would go with a 2 Speed so you have the flexibility if you get into a big fish.

I have a Daiwa Saltist LD 30 2 speed and it is good for me for everything I do except tiles. You might go up 1 size and try the LD40. They run in the mid- $300 range.

Good luck.

Saltist LD combines a compact, lever drag design with the free-spool ability to easily toss live baits and hardware. CRBB (Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings) Shielded design keeps debris out, casts up to 12 times longer than ordinary stainless ball bearings. Fast Push Button Shift From high power to high speed with a touch of the finger. Preset Lever Drag Lets you fine tune your strike tension. Kick the lever past the stop and an aggressive cam takes you quickly to drag max for near-boat fish control. Lever Drag 2 Speed Reel. Medium, 6 CRBB, 6.3:1 Hi Gear Ratio 3.1:1 Low Gear Ratio. Line Capacity: 25/400, 30/270, 40/240 BRAID: 40/660, 50/490
