You can pull cranks with out line counter reels. But you will have to figure out a way to know how much line out and be able to duplicate on your other rods. The easiest way that I figured out was using PowerPro depth hunter line. It is a braided line that has different color every 25’. There’s some advantages to braid but when you get a tangle it can be a mess. If I remember right I only put a 100’ on each of my spinning reels so I was able to spool up all of them with one spool of line. With that said I use it for one year then got line counter reels. I use the line counter for all my crank baiting pushing and pulling it’s very nice to know exactly where my baits are running and if I get bit at 82’ back I can set another one at 82’ back. Not guess that it’s about right.
