What's your favorite baitcast reels for distance?

[worstSPECKanglerTX]

Best reel you've ever used or have seen - IN SALTWATER - for distance on top waters?

I used the abu garcia revo mgx and it's an amazing reel but honestly, after two trips it starts casting pretty poorly and that's without even dunking it, straight up just from the salt air or the miniscule amounts of salwater the fish splash up onto it. I basically have to take the entire reel apart from both ends and clean it front to back for it to function close to what it did when I bought it. I need some more options here. I have a curado 50e and a few others shelved that I might pull out.

I think I might have to stick with shimano on this one...
