Hey there MuskieRich,
The answer is yes-in-deedy. Some questions guys here would ask you is obvious.
- For fresh or saltwater?
- Is it for trolling or jigging?
- What’s the rod you’re gonna use rated at and probable line test?
Many makers are now making models with the counter built in or as an add-on. You’re right on the left-side reel models they aren’t exactly all over the place. A lot of the Japanese reels with counters now have computerized digital output! Shimano, Olympic, Diawa, Okuma (Japanese) and Abu Garcia (Swedish) are just a few. Of course you could just by a cheapo attachment to mount on your rod blade. ha ha ha
