Okuma Convector Line Counter Reel

I bought these reels to use on my dipsie rods useing braid, they are flawless so far.

Got the CV-20DLX (LH) to match up with my SST-C-1062M for trolling and mooching for Salmon. Could not have asked for a better combination. The line counter is invaluable while mooching and the strength of the reel is ridiculous. I like this reel so much that I bought the same one two more times for my spare trolling rods.

I liked the first one so much ,I bought another !

I was looking for a mid-range priced linecounter reel for downrigging. The description and Convector reel caught my attention. It appeared be of high quality and reasonably priced. When I received it, put it in my hands, and spooled-up I was impressed. I would put it up against any similar reel in the $200 and up range. Smooth, quiet, opertion of gears; and the instant anti-reverse is as advertised.

These reels are strong and reliable. great for salmon trolling on lake ontario. smooth drag and great customer service

This reel is amazing. Got a great drag system and fits pole real well. Great purchase!

This reel went way past my expectations. The body is graphite and light weight. The reel comes with a power handle but included in the box is the walleye double grip handle. Speaking of the grips they are a nice rubber that wont slip. The line counter works well, the handle turns well as doesn't feel out of balance. The drag system is nice and the size of this will fit most of your trolling needs for trout, walleye, northern pike, etc. I think it would also hold up for Musky; I am going to give it a shot this year. I bought this and a Daiwa Accudepth to compare side by side before I purchase more to complete my setup - hands down this is a better reel.

I found this reel to be hard to beat unless you are going spend the extra dough for a Shimano Tekota. You would be hard pressed to find a better value or that much better of a reel until you get to the Shimano level. I also have several Okuma Magda's, but find the Convector to be much superior and would recommend spending the extra money for the Convector .For the price and quality the Convector is a solid performer that you won't have to worry you made a mistake in buying one. Very smooth reel with good drag. I am very happy with mine. I have had Daiwa Accudepths and find the Convector to be a better reel to them as well.

Like the left hand crank . Excellent reel . I bought 6 reels and will buy more . FISH USA is a 5 STAR company . Thank you

Great reel for the price. I use these on saginaw bay and they work flawlessly. I have the now discontinued cabelas depth master gold reels for about 6-7 years and I believe okuma made those also. I prefer the left hand models. We also reeled in 15 lb. catfish with ease, very smooth drag. FISH USA is also a 5 star company. I purchased 6 of these reels and will buy more.

I bought six of these reels . So for so good. FISH USA is a five star company also thank you

I use these for salmon and trout on lake ontario and they can handle the big runs big salmon make

For the money this is the best trolling reel I've ever used! Perfect drag and the line counter is very accurate. I have 8 of them and they get used often on Lake Erie trolling for walleye. They also come with a power handle included...

thanks great reels

I've been using connectors in every size for salmon, lakers, Browns, walleye, striped bass for 15 yrs now. Never had a failure and I fish 2-3 times a week. If you need parts it's tough, you have to find them online. No complaints from me

It's hard to find a reel to hold enough lead core line and be paired with a light rod to fish those mid season Trout . This reel does a pretty good job of it . The CV-30 will hold 10 colors of 36 pound lead core and is a great bang for the buck!!

I find the Convectors to have a good value to quality ratio in the mid-priced reels. I run 10 of the convectors on our salmon boat spooled for dipsy, leadcores, and coppers. The high speed return gearing work well for the longer leadcores and coppers. I would recommend these reels if you are looking for a quality reel without spending more than $100. The quality of the Convectors together with FishUSA's excellent customer service makes this a winning combination.

We use CV30DS models spooled with 30lb mono for muskie trolling on lake St. Clair and have had no problems at all with them. They have a nice drag system and are a great value.

Use for trolling great reels for the. Money

Dependable Okuma Convector Reels. Being a Charter Boat Captain on Lake Erie I have always used Okuma Convector Reels, as I reel in those Trophy Walleye's on Lake Erie out of Ashtabula on my 30' Foot Cherokee Boat. Dependable Okuma Convector Reels.

Good quality at a reasonble price

Smooth performance. Drag is easy to set and consistant.

Very well made. I'm very happy to own and fish with this reel.

Trolling on lake Michigan for trout and salmon. This reel has a very smooth drag and the knob on the handle is very comfortable.I plan to buy more in the future.

Mainly used for muskies and trolling dipsy divers for walleye on Erie. This is the tried and true choice of most of my fishing pertners. For the price I think it's the best line counter out there. Diawa has a choppy drag and touchy drag setting. The Convector is way smoother in both departments. I already have some.... just adding to the arsenal!
