I fish saltwater almost every weekend  and try to sneak in a local pond hop for bass midweek.  I’ve have a pair of Shimano SLX XT‘a and a standard SLX and they still work like new.  The XT with infinity brakes with external are worth the $30 upgrade over the $99 SLX.  
ps.  I’m selling one of the left handed  xt’s since I’m upgrading.

Casting, spinning, spincasting, or flyfishing?

 

No one reel is going to cover all those different species you listed unless the stripers are dink stripers the panfish are hand sized and larger.

Sorry for the confusion I was aiming towards a spinning reel

Anyone's 4000 size reel with 20# braid will work, but the it's not gonna be much fun with the fishes on the ends of size spectrum.  Balancing that out with a rod will be more tricky than picking a reel.

Shamino NASCI 3000 is very popular for Texas inshore.

Pick a 4000 sized reel from whatever company you like. It's going to be big and clunky for the smaller fish, but a smaller reel is going to be outmatched for most stripers (and a 4000 size will be for larger fish still).
