I'm after some advice on re-balancing my surf combos.  I have searched around on the forum and looked at some of the existing similar threads already.

I currently have the following three setups

1. A 10ft Finnor Fury with an Okuma NV-80 and 20 pound mono.  Got this about 2 years ago when I got back into fishing.  It has served me well for herring and even a salmon last year at Bunkers Bay.

2. A 10ft Daiwa AIRD with Daiwa AIRD 4000 Reel and 30pound fireline.  This is the one I use the most as it is light and casting distance is good.  Last week in Albany I was casting down to the mono backing so I am a bit worried about the size of the spool for more serious beach fishing.

3. A 12ft Shimano Aerowave Surf Graphite Composite Medium-Heavy with Finnor Lethal 100 and 80 pound Sunline Super PE.  I haven't really had time to use this much and casting distance is not great probably due to the line width.

I am hoping to have some more time to fish soon and want to get something that increases my casting distance.  I will be chasing tailor and hopefully mulloway from the beach.  I'm thinking the best way to do this will be to replace the reel on the Aerowave with something a bit more sensible.  

Any ideas would be welcome and I'm willing to end up replacing both reel and rod but would prefer to do one at a time.  I''m not in a hurry and do not have a budget in mind but let's say up to $200 for a new reel.

Thanks
