Line counter reels

[backoneerie2016]

I calibrated my line counters for 100 ft and got them dead on. But once I went past 100 foot they were of again. Any of you guys have that problem and how can I fix it?

Get a prescription for your OCD , all reels read different after the amount on the spool decreases, you could measure points out to different distances outside and put a cheat sheet on your pole handle..

For the few feet you will be off it will make a minimal difference. Not worth worrying about IMO

I found if I pull out 100 ft and rest my counter then that is the best way to keep it accurate

It's not about the exact distance it's about the repeatability. Distance will be close but being able to get the lure back to the same place every time is key. Sort of like a Fishawk probe reads slightly faster than a Subtroll its not about the exact speed but consistency.
