Cheap Okuma Reels

My Terrova Remote quit last time I was at Enid. I think there was a bit of moisture in it from where the buttons where worn through. Pulling 8 rods with cranks at 1.8 mph all fine. Remote blinked a few times turned course 180 degress and kept running. No warning except display went out and had strange partial symbols. Needless to say those 8 cranks were all tied together.

Unplug it.

Yeah.. After you spring from the back seat, climb over the 2 kids you have watching the poles.. without saying something they repeat and get you killed by your wife.

Me thinks I need to include a easily accessible kill switch or have a second remote handy for my my terrova just in case after reading these posts.

Which one do you guys like best 15 or 20?

some of us are still using 15's and others have switched to the 20's and say they like them better. The next time I buy some I am going to try the 20's

sounds like you need an extra remote battery.

What seems to be the difference? I barrowed some last weekend and a little problem with the 15 getting the line behind the spool.

The 20 has a wider spool and they say that helps with that problem....I think the 20 also has a thumb bar that folks seem to like.

i hear of this line behind the spool problem but ,knock on wood, my 15's have never done that
