Thanks Rob

[moosehead]

How are you guys measuring the braid and copper going onto the reel? By using the line counter on the reel or some other method?

[tlombardozzi]

That is what I do.

The line counter on the reel is not accurate enough for these measurements. I use a Berkley clip on line counter http://www.berkley-fishing.com/berkley-tools-and-equipment-tools-berkley-fishingear/berkley-line-counter/1285890.html

My measurement gives me some walking excerize. A big field and a laser distance finder. Stick a post in the ground at 100 feet, walk to it, go around, and return, walk to it, go around, and return, walk to it, go around, and return. Now how many feet do I reel up?
Crude, but the most accurate you can get. Don't rely on the counter on your reel, it won't even be close.

Can't you just put on the spool, it had the amount printed on it? I am going to be setting up a okuma 55 with 300 copper. I will put on a spool (150 yds) of 65 braid, then the 300 copper. I tried to put this on a Magda 45 xt but it did not fit. So I had to order a 55 when my local shop didn't have it in stock.

Thanks so much for putting in all the time and effort for the benefit of everyone! I have added a copper or 2 to my arsenal over the past few summers. This and your other threads have really helped me! The one thing I would be interested in seeing is the range in which you believe these different copper lengths are running at. I 100% realize there are a million variables with tackle run, speed, current.....ball park guesses are all I am curious about.
Thanks Mike

Legacy - are you still using this Berkley clip on line counter?  Found this threat very useful, much appreciated!  Just need to figure out the best way to measure my line going on the spools without an expensive machine

[ThreeDogsDown]

Great Thread.  Used the recommended measurements for 5 different leadcore rods today.  It worked great.  Thanks all!
