Tica 10000 - Big Pit type
Diawa - Big Pit type
Shamino Cardiff 401 -small 'multi'
Mitchel 7000 - Med Spinner type
Have noticed that the smaller reels perform better for distance casting 100+yds up to 30yds extra...don't know if this is to do with the smaller reels a more inline with the eyes and closer to the butt!...not advising ye to get small reel but consider one step down from big pit type... best luck ...great rod...
ps... if yer going for a Navi make sure tis latest version (lot of old 2009 versions still selling a 2011 prices!)
