He's looking for an all around reel that will work for larger fish like Salmon. Anyone have anything available?

Spinning or conventional? Ocean or inland? Price range your buddy is in. More info would help :)

Cardiff -Not bad for $89.00! Basically the Calcutta little less drag...... I have a couple of these Cardiff's along with Calcuttas and it hard to tell the difference for a fraction of the price. The 400 works great for salmon.

The trick is to order it online and do the Ship to Store other wise the instore price is around $114. The reels usually come out of Reno so its usually about 2-3 days ship time before it arrives in the store for pick up.
