Hi a bit more info would be helpfull i'e what venues clean,mixed,rough but to be honest a decent all rounder would be a Penn 525 mag very good reels excellent casting and easy to control using the mags.Can cope with all but the most extreme.

will be fishing mixed ground sorry should have added that

i would recommend 6500 mag mate ...i do mainly use a 525 mag tho and a slosh for my second but if u have just started out i find that the magnetic cast control on the abu has much better variance than my 525 ...and for that reason alone i would say go for second hand 6500 mag ct. could not fault mine even when i have strong wind against the direction of the cast... the 525 i feel is a lot faster tho ....

6500 reels aren't much cop for mixed ground - for your money I'd probably look for a 2nd hand Penn 525 mag / mag extra / supermag; you should be able to get a mint one for £70-80, a more worn one for £50-60. Load it with 18-20lb line (not too full to start with!) & a leader, and start with the mags on full. It'll be like casting with the handbrake on, so as you get used to it back the mags off a notch at a time until it feels comfortable - it's a reel that you can "grow into" as your technique improves & should serve you well whatever ground you choose to fish.

didnt see ur mixed - ruff comment. mate ..must have been typing the same time..yeah if thats the case u want the 525'pocket winch' mag. must say when i crossed from fixed spool to multiplier i learnt on a mitchell reel on the field then used a 535 mag gs. which was fine .. when i was really comfy with multipliers then i went for the 525 mag ...that was my learning curve ...

[codseeker]

might of been mention but didnt bother to read : if ya used to a eggbeater i wud suggest trying a multipier first before buying one it cud save ya pennys if ya not used to using one ask a mate for a go of hes but if ya birdy it replace the line and go back to eggbeating
