Spare reel use

[blacksquirrel2]

I have a few 27Hs without the line counters and a couple penn 210s. Was wondering what would be the best use for these. I have counters on all my rigger rods and use these also for planer boards. I also have 3 dipsey rods and a 300 foot copper setup using a saltist.

are these reels of any good use?

Thanks

Not sure where you're fishing but Daiwa 27H make great reels for walleyes and browns. Although the line counters are nice to have you can always count level wind passes to know how much line you have out.

I fish Ontario and the fingers. My downrigger and planer board rods 47 line counters on them. Was wonderind if these 27s and the 210s would work for lead core or like you said use the 27 for my main rods, count passes, and then use the 47s for lead core. Am just trying to get the most versatility out of my equipment. How many colors will these reels hold?

Put a two color core on the 27 with power pro backing. Swap the reels with another rod when you want to use it as a SWR or a shallow rig.
