[QUOTE="Marbleyes, post: 160236, member: 675"] I can't speak about clip on line counters because I've never used them. When I first started trolling cranks (about 300 cranksbaits ago) I bought some cheap Cabelas depthmaster linecounter reels and rods. Think I got the combo for $40-50 a piece. I've since upgraded to some diawa sea lines but the Cabelas ones work just fine. Anyway, make sure you spool your reel correctly as far as the amount of line you put on or your line counter won't be accurate at all if you are using the precision trolling guide. Check YouTube for videos on how to accurately spool your linecounters. This will make a huge difference when referring to a dive chart since it will be as accurate as you can be and put your crank as close to the depth you want as possible. I have two combos set up with 10# Berkeley XT, 2 combos with 10# fire line and 2 lead core. My favorites are the 10# mono Berkeley by far. Have fun. It's a whole different world and can be pretty enjoyable to learn something new and pretty rewarding when you can get dialed in. Also, make sure your cranks are tuned and run true. I can't stress that enough. [/QUOTE]
