Snapper
Penn 535 mag is good for what you describe, but it needs to be matched with 28/30lb line (or you will have a nightmare with it. It is too big for lighter lines. The same applies for the Diawa SL30SH or equivalent reels.
Big spool equals big lines usually.
As spellbound says, those that cast with the big reels usually only cast short distances.
If you must have a big reel with big distance, you must match it with big line. The big line will however cut down distance - but thats life, and thats why these reels have big spools.
