Reel for Alungi fishing

Can someone suggest me a well proven fishing rod reel for Alungi trolling? What I should look for before buying one? Thanks

what's your budget?

Three reels come to mind. The Penn 114H, but the 113 will do the trick too, the Shimano 25TLD, and the Omoto 30R. These are well proven reels, I've actually reeled in Tuna on the Penn and Shimano, using 40lbs line.

I just bought the 50 Penn squall.... Looks really good for its price...
