Yup Penn international second hand you will pick up within your budget. may not even need to be serviced and is the reel of choice for myself.

There are pleanty around and will fit your budget easy. Once I had a better idea on what I was doing I then took the obsessive plunge and splashed out on new Tiagras and Custom standup rods and have never looked back |
cheers for that.. if i was to buy a second hand reel, does the warranty still apply for me or is it just for the first owner?
