    do any of you check voltage off downriggers?

    Suggestions for electric Trolling

    The reason I choose the 101 was from the research I done everyone that was using the 80 wasn't happy with not enough power. 20 ft sled equipment ,tackle,people a lot of weight and then weather wind etc,again it depends what your going to do with your boat.I can tell you from personnel use...

    I will add my 2 cents for what its worth, first lets change the negative handle from cantcatch to CAN DO SEABEE MOTTO second you are realizing these fish aren't going to jump in your boat as you just found out your getting a lot of very helpful and positive feed back from these folks.
