Cabela's Quickdraws

[KJ Louise]

I have a silly question, Do the Cabela's quickdraws work on Lake O for Kings?  I have 14 flush mounts installed on my boat, I currently use them down on the salt here in NH.  They work just fine for stripers and blues...

 

Whats your opinions?

 

Thanks

Steve

Never tried that brand specifically but have used other plastic holders.  I almost lost a dipsy and downrigger setup because "I thought I would give them a shot". Personally I won't ever use another plastic holder.  

 

I will tell you that they do stand up to walleyes with inline planer boards along with trout (excluding lakers).

for occasional use I bet you'd be fine just set your drags accordingly

I tried them for about three times out years ago and thank God I had a safety line on my rods....I had a real good hit that lifted the spindle out of the retainer and the rod headed for the water. A pair of them sits in my garage unused since that day I take that all back....I had the 360 HT rod holders....sorry about that....

   A friend has them on his boat,  we never lost anything yet & they do seem to twist alot, but I just don't trust plastic. jmo.

Ok...that solves my concerns....I guess I'll be ordering some SS ones from Bert's.
