for casters the Omega reel from zebco is fantastic, I used to wear out a 33 or other version of zebco's in less than a year (cheap built) went to the Omega which has real ball bearings etc. and I get 2+ years on them before I wear them out and they have a real drag on them so you can set it or adjust if you happen to hook a big bass or cat.

If you noticed, I put spinner in the title because I knew you were going to come in and bring up your Zebco.
I also use Shimano for my open face reels. I have several Zebcos including Omega but I only put fluro or mono in those as the crystal fireline/braid doesn't work as well. I use crystal fireline/braid for a couple of my open face reels I like the line has no give and easier to pull snags out of trees with that line.
