Is there such a thing a decent push button closed reel (used be Zebco 808) available any where?
I have and old Zebco 55 in mint condition. It was zebco’s first saltwater reel and has gears that will pull ya truck out of a ditch!!
Any of the zebco reels are great for this-just make sure the guts are well oiled and you do a good fresh water rinse when finished. My two sons have been using a pair of zeb 33 platinums for a few years now at the beach almost weekly and they are holding up great. Zebs are easy to lube too cause the cover exposes the innards so easily.

Found this on ebay:
Don’t know if it would stand up to the bigger reds or not, but would be excellent for trout.
