You can match the depth of your bait to the depth of the fish. This is often done with multi-color fishing line that has a different color for a section of line. By counting the number of colors you let out from your fishing reel you will know approximately how far away your bait is. This fishing technique can be helped further by a line counter trolling reel because you can know exactly where your bait is rather than an estimated zone that covers many yards of fishing line. When depth control is critical, use a line counter reel. Today’s high-tech electronics will pinpoint fish at various depths and tell you exactly how deep you should be fishing. Getting there consistently and accurately requires a quality Line Counter fishing reel like the KastKing ReKon level wind reel with a line counter.
Trolling depth is dependent on these key issues: Trolling speed: Line diameter: How much fishing line is let out behind the boat: Lure type, Trolling weight/diver/lead core line used
There are a number of trolling charts that can help you reach a desired depth, but they all require the angler to know exactly how many feet of fishing line they are releasing from the reel to consistently reach the desired depths. Even if you are not trolling, a conventional, level wind reel with line counter can be very effective as a deep jigging reel or “Hover” fishing to suspended fish. In this case, because you are fishing vertically, all you need to know is how deep the targeted fish are and then using a heavy jigging lure or weight to sink your bait, simply drop your bait to the desired depth by releasing line and watching the line counter. When you’ve reached the proper depth, simply engage the lever and start fishing. The KastKing ReKon line counter reel is an important tool for anglers targeting, Salmon, Steelhead, Walleye, Kokanee, Striped bass, catfish or any other species that require accurate depth control of the lures or bait, whether you are trolling or jigging.
KastKing ReKon trolling reels with more fishing line capacity are the best fishing reels for trolling with lead core fishing line, and, also gives you the option of fishing with heavier pound test lines. The size 20 KastKing ReKon holds over 320 yards of 25 lb. mono or equivalent diameter braided line.
If you are trolling for salmon, steelhead, striped bass, lake trout, or other large fish you'll need a conventional reel with a good amount of drag. The KastKing ReKon conventional reel size 20 with a mechanical line counter has 30 lbs of carbon fiber drag. Lighter drags often don’t hold when trolling heavy lures in strong currents. The size 20 KastKing trolling reels with line counter is equipped with a power handle, which is also helpful for reeling in big fish. The smaller KastKing ReKon size 10 has 25 lbs of carbon fiber drag and is excellent for walleye fishing and has a double paddle handle.
If you are saltwater trolling for salmon or striped bass, having corrosion resistant components in a trolling reel for saltwater fishing such as brass gears, shielded stainless steel ball bearings and a graphite fishing reel body are all needed. KastKing ReKon line counter reels have those features. KastKing ReKon main gears and worm shafts are made of precision machined brass. Its pinion gear and line guide shaft are high quality stainless-steel. Both Rekon size 10 and 20 trolling reels feature an exceptional, accurate mechanical line counter with a re-set button that measure line out in feet. Both KastKing fishing reels have a line clicker function that makes releasing planer boards simple and easy. You can use that feature as a strike detection system while trolling.
That’s how to use a line counter fishing reel and some thoughts on the best price round baitcasting reels with the best value and the best trolling reel features,

Question… how do you add line to these reels?

QUESTIONS! so for Salmon trolling will it work if I dropped the bait on the water then I'll make sure the anchovie is spinning right then when I have the counter on the 0 and let's say the captain says dropped 175 so that's when I turn the switch making sure it's on 175 deep is that how it will work?
I saw in your video that you were casting a heavy lead with the Kastking reel. How well does this reel cast handle casting large weights? That will be my end use of this reel if I purchase one of these reels. Thanks for your help with my question.
Hi there. It casts very well with bigger weights
How much will the size 30 hold of 80lb braid?
👏👏👏👏👏
👍👍👍👍👍
Can you release a power handle for sharky III? My sharky 5000 series looks cute because of a small reel handle. So many predagor fish laughing at me because of handle
Oh maybe release someday. KastKing will release saltwater spinning reel early next year which comes with power handle, make sure you've subscribed our channel😜
Ive just purchased two reckon 10 linecounter reels for inline planerboard trolling. Is there any advantage in using braided line for this over mono.
Hi sir, you can have more capacity on the spool if you use braided line, and braided line can provide you with higher strength.
Do yoy have a video using this reel on vertical jigging?
Not specifically! We can work on that for 2021 though :)
@@KastKing hope you can make a reel for vertical jigging, always loved your product. I'll definitely wait for it.
I bought 2 of these and sometimes the counter gets stuck around 97ft. Have to reel back in and start over
Interesting thanks for the feedback. We haven't heard of this problem. If it is still under warranty we would be happy to look into it.
