Quick take
Left-handed round trolling reel with mechanical line counter and anti-fogging technology, sized for precise depth control on the water.
This Okuma Coldwater 203D is a left-hand round trolling reel with a built-in line counter that reads in feet, so you can repeat the same trolling depth. It has a 5.1:1 gear ratio, a wide-mouth levelwind and a star drag for setting drag precisely. The pink ladies edition suits anglers trolling for walleye and trout who want to know exactly how much line is out.
