Shimano Baitrunner 6000: XTR-RA, XT-RA, XTEA or GTE-C?

Thanks everyone for the hints and tips. My budget definitely can’t stretch to some of the eye watering prices of the top reels. I have seen some Okuma Epix Pro EPB 50s. Any thoughts on these? They seem to have been quite popular on here.
 
I use these, seems pretty bomb proof so far!

Gavin,
Ask on here if anyone has a pair of 4000 or 6000 Shimano OC's they are willing to sell. I've purchased all mine second hand from BFW members. Great reels, and spare spools are very reasonably priced.
