Entry level Reels ?

For a few years I've "dabbled" with trolling for trout and salmon. Fishing both lake superior and lake Michigan about 3 times each per year. My question to you all is; what is a good entry level reel for trolling that has a nice LOUD clicker and is affordable for a retiree on a low budget. Preferably with a line counter but not entirely necessary. I fish with both a downrigger and a couple dipsy's and fishing alone I can't always be watching my rods. Thus the desire for a LOUD clicker, ;) I'm also hard of hearing. I currently use an older penn 209 and a okuma magna pro 20. I can hear the penn clicker going out but not the magna. I'd get a couple new penns but I heard the china made reels are not as good as the old USA made ones.
Thank you for any input.
