    Line Counter

    Can anyone suggest a good line counter to use when spooling reels? I know Berkley has one but does not seem to have very good reviews. Rather than just filling the reel, I would like to know the footage/yardage of line loaded.

    Thanks,

    All of those 'clip on' line counters have poor performance and endurance ratings.
    To get something DEPENDABLE you want a commercial grade line spooling station with a wheel counter and they ain't cheap.
    Something like this...

    Sounds like a design and patent opportunity.
