I have Two TLD 25's and I think they are good reels. Penn makes one that looks more modern for a little more money -GLD I think, but no one seems to carry the single speed and the two speed is too much for the budget. The TLD 25 has caught several Wahoo - one in excess of 40 pounds with no trouble. If you troll at faster speeds with a stretch 30 for example the drag seems to be at the upper limits. It seems like a good reel for what you describe.
