I like the size and drag of the Maxel, but the offset stock handle takes some getting used to. My biggest complaint is the spring that holds the thumb bar down. Way too weak! With a 6oz jig and casting up current, the reel partially engages and makes a god awful grind over the pawl.
Couple other choices I'd consider would be the Abu winch or Revo series. Balance them on the rod and you'll figure out what feels best.
