Revo inshore and Orra inshore both have a corrosion resistant coating and are made for saltwater use. Very smooth and will cast a country mile. You get what you pay for.

If you were to go spend a lot on just one reel, then here it is...


I've thrown all these reels, and when it comes to size, casting distance, speed and drag strength, hands down goes to the new Okuma Cedros Cj 273. This thing is sick. I hated okuma baitcasts till now. I've always been a Shimano guy. I've owned/or own a few Quantum's, Abu's, and a cpl different bass pro's. Go check one of these things out. And unlike everyone else, they have a super deep spool for as tiny as they are. They are almost the size of the Shimano Curado 50E and hold about as much line as the 300. There is no other reel this small with as much line capacity as thing, nothing. But I still love my Shimano's, just changed out my bearing to ceramic and no longer have to worry about corrosion and also it cast farther and 500x smoother on both my Curado's and Chronarch
