| I recently got a line counter reel for sucker fishing this fall that has a bait clicker. It’s a scheels line counter but they’re made by Okuma. So it’s very similar to the Okuma ColdWater Line Counter reel. I was wondering whether you engage or disengage the reel when you have a sucker on the line. I read something somewhere about tightening the brake knob, but there isn’t a brake knob on this reel. This is the first one I have had so I am unaware how it would work. Thanks for any help! | |
