Hey, welcome to the forums. We'd need more info to give you a good answer (what you're using it for, etc). With that said, that's a great price on the Daiwa.

Haven’t used the Shimano. I will still vote Tatula Elite, and it’s not even close. That reel made me join the Daiwa bandwagon.

The Tat Elite is a heck of a reel for $170. Id grab one of those

 

i will say for $200 you could grab an Alphas SV if you don’t need a crazy amount of line capacity. The jump from Tatulas to Alphas/Zillion/Steez is a nice one
