Reel for under $150

[Inspiredbyfishing]

I am looking to upgrade sometime in the near future and I have $150 to spend on the reel which will be predominantly used for bream and flathead. Planning to keep using 4-6lb braid with the new reel. Something between 1500 and 2500 is the sort of size I am looking for. Also, where is the best spot to buy because DohDohDoh is really expensive compared to the locals.

Could buy 2 Penn 2600 slammers.

Shimano Sedona - Sahara - Symetre punch above their price brackets

been having a look online and it seems that the daiwa aird and shimano symetre are the two I am divided between.

Symetre. Can't fault them for the price

Stretch your budget 20-30 bucks and your in range of a Stradic FJ series. For bream and flatties, a 1000 series reel is more than enough as well.

+ 1 for both the symetre or sedona... and you'll have change for some line also.
