Many manufacturers are using this same 'platform'.
The Pflueger 'Trion' is very similar to the Orvis 'Battenkill Mid-Arbor' and the Redington 'CD'. Redington uses a stainless steel Japanese Koyo needle bearing and a cork drag which makes it the best series of reel made on that similar platform.
The largest Trion (12 weight) would probably work and is $139 usd on Cabelas and Bass Pro Shop Online stores.
A little nicer reel that is made in the USA is the Teton 'Tioga 10 Magnum Large Arbor' @ $180 usd.
