Fancy reels are all well and good but angler skill is far more important. The VAST majority of lost trout aren't due to smoking a reel's drags system but rather angler error. If you can afford one of the more expensive reels mentioned in the thread...terrific...they work well. If you can't, it's not a problem, big trout are caught on modest set ups all the time.
