Shimano Speedmaster, TLD 15, Penn 4/0 to 6/0. Some of the Penn GTI series in the larger sizes will work.
IMHO, you want a reel with a decent retrieve ratio and a fairly large line capacity. Smooth drag is mucho important.
Those speedsters off the pier can burn a lot of line in hurry, particularly at a light drag setting. But, you also have to have the horsepower, due to the large shark, cobia or tarpon that you can hook up with.
Which pier, will you fish the most on Topsail?
