Electric Planner Reels

[Yankee Troller]

Whos got 'em and what brand do you have? I'm looking for some pros and cons about each manufacturer. I really like the Ciscos becasue they are all metal. I have been through 2 pairs of BJ's in the last 10 years due to the handles crackin from sun damage. I figure since I run my boards every trip out an electric reel would be nice.

Yankee this may not be what you are looking for but just thought I'd throw this setup into the mix.

It works good for me.

That looks like a great set-up, but I don't think I have the room for a rigger like that. Plus, I think the electric planner reels are a tad bit cheaper than having to buy a new rigger.

Yup, I just want to stay away from the Big John's. The sun seems to beat them up pretty good, and we have busted off handles on them.
