Line Counter Reels

[Eyes N Leapers]

I use the Okuma reels 15 or 20 series, best bang for the buck. We use to use a multiple of other brands, but I think for the price you can't beat em. Last year we made the switch and now have 8 or 10 of them. I even bought a few of the 50 series for when we went salmon fishing to Ludington, MI. last August, and they worked flawlessly pulling in 15 to 20lb salmon. They got a workout too, we caught 44 in one week. I didn't want to spend a lot of $ on salmon reels that I would use only 1 week a year. If they work for salmon that run like a train downhill they can easily handle the little runs that walleye make. Look on EBAY there's a guy in MI that has great deals on rod and reel combos. I am not a Charter but I have fished out of Wild Wing almost every other weekend for 12 years. I hope this helps.
