User questions & answers

Question:	is it good for freshwater fishing
Answer:	This is a difficult question to answer, because it depends how you are fishing as well as where you are fishing. On of our top pro-staff in the Pacific Northwest that specializes in Kokanee fishing recommends using 10-12 lbs monofilament for his trolling. Monofilament is recommended, because of the stretch factor which helps with the and Kokanee’s soft mouth. The Coldwater 350 holds 250-yds of 12-lbs monofilament
Question:	What line would be best for trolling for kokanee and how much would fill the okuma coldwater 350 low profile linecounter reel
Answer:	i used it for lake trout and pike fishing with 30 pound braid line
Question:	Is this reel used for salmon fishing? What is the differences between 354A and 354D
Answer:	I would not recommend using a counter reel for long cast applications. The added transmission gears that drive the counter will not allow the reel to freespool as freely as casting reel without a counter.
Question:	Does the line counter on this reel work for surf casting long distances at high speeds
Answer:	Yes

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you get this pink ladies reel in a right hand? Shows right hand in picture but don't see where you have option for right hand
Answer:	I ordered the same reel thinking I was getting right-handed. I was sent left-handed. I contacted Amazon and someone from the company was supposed to contact me back. I have not heard anything from them, so you might contact them before ordering to make sure that you can.
Question:	What is the line capacity
Answer:	The information can be readily found by googling the model. That having been said: It's 210yd of 20lb mono - which translates to something like 300 yds of 40-50lb braided. I've purchased 4 okuma coldwaters over the years and recommended them to friends. Everyone loves them - they're great reels at any price and superb reels at this price. I've bought more expensive reels and Ive been the happiest with coldwater. You won't be sorry.

Answer:	dlx is left handed. D is right handed. Different listing on amazon. Yes, they have it.
