Isn't the line counter on the other side than the Okuma?
I can get them, I will have to check but I think about $40-$50 range.
I may order a couple and try them.
Yep....the ABU has it on the opposite side.....also it is out board of the reel frame instead of inboard like the Okumas. ABU Garcia is good stuff.....I still have 5 of the ABU Garcia Ambassadeur bait casters from my bass fishing days and I always liked them. I have a half a dozen ABU Garcia spinning reels also.Quote:

Just asking the more I thank about it the more I don't want to put the wear and tear or the hrs on my motor.
I use an 80 on my 175. I've been wondering about the solar chargers myself, anyone have any actual experience with them?
I have a 24v solar charger with a voltage regulator on it that I was trying to use to keep my game feeder batteries charged. It wouldn't do the job, so I attached it to my tractor battery, wouldn't do that either. Before that, I tried various sizes and models of 12v and 6v on the game feeders and game cameras. I have had nothing but bad results with them. Now, that has been 4-5 years ago, so maybe they are better today, can't be much worse. Maj, I'm not going to eat there again......
I have a few buddy's that bow fish and they run a little generator I thank it's like 42cc weed eater motor on it they paid like 80-90 bucks for it but it keeps there batt charged while they are trolling and it puts out 13.5 that's same as my solar charger I got. I don't know about the amps but they can run for ever like that only reason for the battery is to keep the trolling motor from pulsing.
The bow fishin guys I know here mainly use the Gen to run the lights, but I guess it will help with the TM as well. I also think, based on experiments, that in order to put much juice back in the TM bats the solars would have to be larger that my boat. Not enough amps.
i am gonna have to do some looking see if i can find one that puts out a few more amps even if i only get an hour or so more out of the batt it would be worth it to me.
I need one to keep my cranking battery charged while running all the bait and live wells.
