Tibor light? Bauer MSL? Galvan Torque or Open Back? Lamson Litespeed? Ross Evolution? Abel Creek?

Kind of like comparing a like model BMW to a Mercedes isn't it? No real right answer. For trout, and this is just me, I spend most my budget on the rod. I think most trout reels in the $80 to $150 range are all one needs unless you have the cash to blow, and in that that case, any on your list are high quality reels.
