Title: Re: Line Counter suggestions
Post by solotripper on May 1st, 2022 at 8:24pm
I found this idea. It's so simple which makes it easy to duplicate. You could use the same principle in a solo or tandem canoe. All my searches show not much accuracy with those clip-on line counters and even with the reel counters unless they are calibrated properly.

Simply mark 10 feet from the transom up the gunwale towards the bow. Put the crank bait in the water and unspoool 10′ of line with your thumb on the spool, when the line tightens up, do it again until you reach the desired length. This is WAY more accurate than one of those clip on type line counter
