As far as I can tell there are a good many reels out there capable of fulfilling the needs of most of us from around $30 upward to the sky's the limit. I have several of the reels Bass Pro / Outdoor World sell under Hobbs Creek and Dogwood Canyon and have been very happy with all of them. Now I have never had a bonefish rip off 150 yards of line but have a couple of 7#+ grass carp and +/- 6 lb. bass and catfish that gave the drags a decent fresh water test.

Just my personal opinion, but, I recommend you stay away from "automatics" for a number of reason.
