I have around 8 different line counter brands and i keep coming back to the magda. I have 2 different higher end models from okuma and this is just hard to beat for the money. I have 4 of these now and they work flawlessly.

Nice reel for trolling. Line counter is a big help targeting depths.

I purchased this reel for some Kokanee fishing in NZ (yes we have them here too). Straight out of the box the drag was impossibly tight and had no real adjustment. The free-spool mode was not free at all and line would have to have been dragged off the spool it was so tight - even allowing for complete release of the spool end-pressure adjustment. I was aware of the possibility of both of these faults through reading prior reviews and since I always hone new drag washers on all my reels out of the box (they are mostly dished when stamped) figured this would not be a problem. I stripped the reel, honed and polished the washers, greased and oiled as appropriate and re-assembled having swapped out one of the spring washers for a flat one. Very smooth drag, better adjustment, good free-spool and the line counter was always fine. I also took the end-play out of the drag/drive system by inserting a 0.5mm brass shim washer where the shaft is secured through the Hold Plate bushing (was quite sloppy).I just have to calibrate it when I put the line on.Looking forward to using it.Having just put 200m of 12lb Maxima line on the reel (over some backing) measured out 100' I ran out the line to distance and was 1' under!!! That'll do me just fine.

I have been using these reels as an affordable option on lake trolling setups for salmon and trout fishing for going on two decades. Bought these new ones to add a few more to my arsenal since I have now have a bigger boat. Overall I am satisfied but certainly not wowed. The older Magda Pro 20’s I have seem to be of better construction and operate more consistently. The aesthetics of the current model is more stylish and the handle fits better in my hand, but this is only better than the prior design if you consider more plastic to be an improvement. Operation has been compromised by what appear to be changes made to reduce manufacturing costs. The free spool lever jams frequently requiring the retrieve handle to be moved to reposition the spool to permit it to be engaged, which is a wicked PITA when letting out line. Also the drag adjustment is tight, even when adjusted all the way out there is considerable drag pressure on the spool such that it can’t be set to allow a fish to easily take line after a strike, and the two new reels don’t work the same in this regard, both are tight but one is worse than the other.Has me considering replacing them with something else but any reasonable alternative would cost two to three times more money, so I rate this good value for the $$$ but far from spectacular. Functional, barely, but that’s about it.

When I received my 2 reels the drag on one did not work at all, it was like there was not one installed. Amazon immediately resent the order and I was able to get a good one and send the others back. I have fished several times with the reels and they work fine but the drag on both are not as smooth as I am use to and I'm not sure how they will work when I hang into a 10-20 fish. They are just $50 reels and maybe I got what I paid for, time will tell. I have caught many trout with them and the reels worked fine but they have all been under 3lbs. I will be steelhead fishing in a few weeks and if the reels hold up to a 10-12lbs steelhead these reels will be a great deal.Since my review I have had the opportunity to put these reels to the test and I have to say they passed with flying colors. I bought two 15 DXT's and have caught many 5-15 pound fish and the reel did it's job perfectly. I have to admit that I have been looking at other reels that cost more money because I want a couple more for salmon fishing the great lakes but I can't justify spending more money on reels when these Okuma reels do the same job for less than half the price. It is a great deal and I am going to order two DXT 20's. P.S. I have changed my rating from a 3 to a 5 stars.

I bought two f these for my wife and I. We use them for trout fishing last week and they worked perfectly. We used them with 4incHToronto wobbler trolls and a 20lb line without additional weights. Once you free your line the line counter has no problem following and never stops or slowdown. The handle fits nicely in your hand and you can reel in your catch very fast. The only thing I find is they are a bit heavy for fishing with one hand and driving the beat but you get use to it.
