shimano
the stradic mg in america is pretty smooth and its got a mg body
and the drag rates i think 5kg or around those figures id go the 1000 size
daiwa
very very very smooth cant beat it for solidness and smoothness and there drag is classic
probably the best drag u can buy for the money
the guys will lead you in the right direction
and guys dont have the fight SHIMANO VS DAIWA
its a personal choice at the end
i'd choose either one they both up line up in the ranges
