new fixed spool reel

hi lads the wife is out in china and asked me did i want anything back so it time to invest in 2 new reels,i have found a large fishing tackle market near where she is staying that has good reviews,i am looking for a bit of advice on a good fixed spool reel,will be using it with a century kompressor beach caster,thanks for any advice

penn affinity 7000 or a shimano ultegra xsc 10000 both cracking reels

Shimano ultegra XSA in 10000 or 14000, a workhorse that casts & lasts (you can have that one for free Shimano)

thanks for the reply's lads,2 new reels on the way,haven't a clue what make they are yet

two new reels arrived today she got me a tica talisman TG8000 and a tica sbat 8000 nice looking reels,feel pretty strong as well,has anyone used any tica reels?
