I have used the big fixed spools for distance pike fishing in some hard conditions shimano aerlex and biomaster, penn surfmaster 70, and daiwa emblems none have ever let me down some very good used bargins on ebay if i had to pick one it would be the surfmaster 70 if you can pick one up

thanks for advice forgot to mention i already have a penn 850 i think it is bought it about 4years ago when they first came out its the bigger of the 2 reels.really just after a spare reel and possibly better standard tight lines:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

I've got the Penn Surfblaster 8000 mate, big conical spool with unreal line lay, it's casts like a dream and comes with a shallow depth braid spool too.

It's a step up from the surfmaster reels which are good (my dad has one) but well worth the extra money in mind.

You'll get one online for £80 delivered or look for a used one on eBay for £50-60

Probably the best fixed spool for under £100

Hope this helps
