5 wt reel options

[JackM]

Except for very small streams and very small trout, I typically get the trout on the reel. I see nothing cringeworthy about it.

What are some good options for reels that are modestly priced but work well?

These work nicely, a decent disc drag and are only $50 ........

I honestly like the Okuma reels.
