I’ve used this reel for walleye fishing in cold lakes and it handles well under pressure. The line counter helps me keep track of line length during long casts. The drag system holds strong even when fighting large fish.

Great for trolling with kokanee. The reel stays stable and the drag holds up well during intense runs. The line counter is a small but useful feature.
