    Default Okuma line counter reels


    The Northwoods wholesale website does not show the Okuma ma-15dx or ma-20dx anymore. Does anyone know of any other site that has them at a reasonable price? I was wanting to pick up a couple to try and I am now kicking myself for not buying these when they were 25 bucks apiece. Is there any other line counters that I may want to look at or to stay away from?
    I appreciate your help.
    Thanks

    Bought a 4 pack of their trolling rod/reel combos , 8 ft rods came with diawa line counters on em. Used em once,and actually thought they were maybe a little bit better than an okuma. Rod and reel for price of an okuma magda. Deal of the day!! From northwoods

    I had forgotten about you talking about the Power Pro. I am not familiar with braided line. Is there a certain knot that you have to use with braid? Any issues with the line fading and making it hard to see after awhile? You know how my eyesight is!!

    Looks almost identical to the Okuma reels
