Can anyone recommend a line counter to use when spooling up reels? i.e. to measure your backing when splitting a spool of line between 3 reels.

do you have to set it up back to front as its for measuring depth? Was looking at these but thought they maybe too much of a pita.

Yep, that's the one I use. Pretty sure I bought from The Tackle Shop, was a while ago though. Very handy when loading braid from bulk spools and for settling arguments on how far that island is
Are you sure?
