Gold Cup Line Counter Reel - A Product Review

Freshwater anglers know that Bass Pro Shops has produced some of the most affordable high-quality reels on the Market. Their names are synonymous with anglers: the Extreme, the Johnny Morris, the Pro Qualifier and many more. But now, saltwater fishermen can get the same superior reel design at the reasonably-priced level Bass Pro Shops has set the standard for in the Gold Cup Line Counter Reel.

The durable frame houses rugged gears to handle your trophy saltwater fish.

Built on the same rugged graphite frame used to manufacture the world's finest trolling reels, Bass Pro Shops new Gold Cup Line Counter Reel pits brute strength and long-term dependability against anything fish have to offer. The Gold Cup is a versatile reel that can be used for flat lines, planer boards and downriggers.

The Gold Cup's has another feature fishermen crave, a reliable mechanical counter that tells you exactly how much line you have out, in feet, for precise depth and setback control on every pass.

Its construction leaves nothing to be desired. There is a tough graphite frame housing a single-bearing drive that's geared for ultimate power and accuracy. Holding the line is a lightweight black anodized aluminum spool and a hard metal line guide. For notification of your trophy, there is an audible clicker and on/off switch. For battling the larger saltwater monsters, the reel comes equipped with a rugged star drag. The reel weighs 17.2 ounces and has a gear ratio of 4.2:1.

The Gold Cup is a stellar performer for whatever fishing application you see it fit for. Its design also affords a great combination with the growing popularity of extra-tough superlines. Make the Gold Cup your newest saltwater reel and you’ll see why Bass Pro Shops reels are top of the line and easy on your wallet. Price: $59.99.
