Best inshore reel 2020?

[Will10159]

I am mainly a bass angler but I fish inshore and pier fish a lot and I have great reels but I want something nice. I use the Penn Pursuit 3 as it is the battle/fierce but mainly graphite. Penn dropped a new reel called the Clash 2 and it looks very nice, and most importantly durable. It might be the best inshore reel on the market. Does anyone have any suggestions for inshore reels?

For under $250 fresh or salt, I'd recommend the Daiwa BG. I've used a bunch of reels in that price range and unless you're specifically trying to save weight, the BG performs as well as anything.

Another vote for the Daiwa BGs.  Have a bunch from 3000 to 5000 and they are all beasts

all of my spinning reels are Penns,I fish a lot in Mosquito Lagoon and have never had a problem with one.I use the older ssg models 420's 430's and 440's love em. the 420 and 430 models are my bass reels.

To me, depends a bit on technique.

 

For my inshore fishing where I target trout and reds, my 3000 Stradics do all I need them to do.

For inshore fishing I use Penn and Shimano reels. Have a couple Penn reels that are over 30 years old and they work great.

Huge fan of Shimano Stradics. The 3000 size is my go-to for the kayak. I have a 5K for heavier applications.

 

The Daiwa Saltist Back Bay is pretty nice too and can be had for about $150-$160 if you shop online. But I prefer the Stradics.
