Saltwater reels.
Hey yahll. I just moved to Guam and I'm tryna find a decent saltwater reel around $100. Looking for a 7/8wt to match my pole/target fish. Theres no "reel" flyfishing scene or stores out here so im stuck with buying online, gathering info and comparing. But its a lot and I'm not the most seasoned fly fisherman. So far ive looked at Piscifun sword, Redington Behemoth, Lamson liquid reels and Okuma SLV. If one of these tower above the rest lmk. Or if you have some better recommendations my ears are open. Im not to worried about sealed drags or corrosion problems as i intend to clean and flush my reel after every trip anyways.
Thanks yahll and let me know!

Of those I have only used a lamson in 8wt and I couldn't be happier with it.

Lamson would be my choice.
