I was seriously looking at replacing my Magda reels with them. I have 4 margda reels, last year one blew out. Researched the coldwaters on this site. Got mixed opinions and reviews. Kindalike Chevy/Ford I think in the end.
Yeah it is cool but man that is gonna stir up the regulations in a sick way. I have also been waiting to see drone footage of scouting for elk, deer, moose etc...only a matter of time.
I have the same thing happening to my 1991 22.5 Islander but havent found exactly where the water is entering from. I suspected the livewell intake too but upon inspecting it I cant see how it would be entering there. unless maybe I have a pipe cracked.
Whoever it was that posted go to the city board meeting had the best comment. Everything else is just ranting. Go, ask questions and get your answers. Always two sides to the story.
I do kind of the same thing but use a canon double pinch pad release. One pad connects to you rigger cable at whatever depth you want and one to you fishing line. There is a snap in between the two pinch pads that hooks around your rigger cable
