Does anyone have any experience with these reels. I ma looking at them for grouper fishing. Would you go with the ones that have a level wind if you chose one?

I’ve used a couple deferent modules of squalls and they all felt good, caught cobia, Mahi and Wahoo. Can’t say for big grouper the biggest I’ve caught is like a 10#er in around a160ft and it didn’t fight that hard, but a squall would of handled it no problem.
With only 20 lbs of drag, it would not pull a big one out of the rocks if he hunkers down. It would probably do just fine most of the time, but why take a chance on a grouper specific rig. I use a hot rodded Penn 114H with 40 lbs of drag.
