In the market for a new baitcaster to use in the salt.
Was considering these two: Diawa Costal TWS Diawa Lexa 300HD
Anyone have any experience/opinions on them? Any other options I should consider in the $180 range?
Thanks!

Those two are on the lower end of the daiwa line up so they should be equal which ever one you choose. A reel that I know is a work horse in a low profile is the curado 300 series.although it'll cost you a few bucks more

How bout a Shimano Tekota 300?

+1 on the tekota. I dont have one but they are light and are work horses.

Lexa 300 all day long! Never had a problem! Ain’t no low end reel to me

I have a Tekota 300LC is a really nice reel. Perfect weight for kayak fishing and line counter is a nice feature to have. It's not on the cheap side, but worth the price for under $200.

What Da Bruddah said.
The Daiwa reels offer every bit the quality and durability of a Shimano reel.
