I need a new reel. Had my present one for a long time and I have decided that since its started to struggle with the idea behind the whole "staying in one piece" thing, I should get a new one. Looked in catalouges and sales and that and realised that I don't know what makes a good reel.

Any recomendations for a beachcasting reel, preferably fixed spool, don't mind paying under £40.

Thanks

Get yourself a Penn 750/850. Comes with a spare spool... all for £50. I have two, no complaints after the first year.

Get the Shimano Aerlex. I have both the Aerlex and the Penn, both good reels but the Aerlex is slightly cheaper and stronger.

Penn 750 - definately the best IMHO.
