Do you have any other pics
It looks like a weapon from the rear

Is the postage cost included when trying to stay under a grand to avoid the import costs

Rang customs, there is a tax of 10/. for items purchased O.S this does not include the freight costs.

Sir Jumpy,
How high does the boom arm sit above the gunnel?

Quite high easy to get 2 chookens & a duck under there

Went & washed the goat 2day & grabbed camera, pic below should give ewe a goodarua idea how high it sits

Bear in mind i'm pretty sure the non electric model dosen't sit this high

Looks like it should be tall enofgh to clear the hand rails that come off the gunnels and down to the pod.
I will go electric I think but I cant decide if I go all out with a Cannon or save a few bucks and get a Scotty?
After reading a few forums they said some of them have had problems with the bottom trackin system of the cannons.

Thats a much better pic, thanks for posting.
Are you running wire cable? Does it hum much?
Whats the red button for
And lastly does it count off the depth in ft or meters?

No probs clearing handrails easy 6 - 7 inch's clearance
See if I can dispell sum of the bullashitta peeps go on about



I see alot of goats in the bay downrigging & the bulk are using cannons personally I think it's because they're cheaper not any better & peeps tend to rave on cause they own sum ting.
Cant compare cause I've only used the Scotty2Hotty's & so do my mates & I've heard no complaints from any of them.
I get well looked after with gear & when I asked how many of the scottys come back for repairs I was was told zero & I believe that cause I've never seen any 2nd hand units there.



Like I said in an early reply, not needed & a waste of time, just set the depth via count meter & be mindfull of the angle of line out the back depending on troll speed.
Quicker the speed the higher the bomb will rise to the surface, sitting on say 1 knot of speed bomb will be directly behind the transom & your sounder will record it on the screen so when ewe see it dont get a & confuse readind as fush.




Yep running wire not dacron & it's bullshit about the huming I've never had that prob, also read peeps whinging about the s/s wire on the scotty's rusting up, that's another wank.

It does stain but only due to contaminants on the wire not the wire actually rusting



2b honest I have no idea
I'll have to look next time out



Being Amellican it's in feet, yanks are slow converting to metric


You'll no doubt ask alot more Q's when ewe get wun may even pin a thread on do, dont's & tips on how to downrigg

I want to get a downrigger as well, these look alright for the money ? Don't want to spend more then $500 ..

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm !

Me Tinks ewe have SIDE EFFECTS from taking sum of Fed's Shinny Head Tablets else ewe would've gone the gold wun

Kungys aka Girly fush in all honesty have 2b wun of the easiest species to ketch
Many ways/methods of fushing for them none right or wrong
The Banks [place fushed in video] has to be wun of the best kung reefs going around & you'd have to be a proper dill not to ketch the girly fush there.
We actually had a double hookup there wun year trolling 3 kg stripys around for marlins these kungs were in the 40 kg class.

Now getting back to the vid, really think all these guys trully have a wank going on about scent & just repeat the nonsense others have said, only 2 things ewe need to know about ketching squid
Clean water
type of jig to be used if in shallow water [5 meters] use a slow sinking jig else ewe'll keep ketching the bottom
7 meter or deeper go a fast sinking jig to get ewe down & keep ewe there longer in the zone.

Setup on their goat ?????????

Dont like it @ all rod is to far aft from the bomb allowing to much drop back on mainline I like to aim my rod around 30 degree's out with it starting to load up on the bomb little if any drop back

Yeah that did look werid, looks like he had no idea on what he was doing.

What about a REAL HEAVY ROCK on a string?

Hey Spud !

Wot sized balls du ewe use when downrigging your carrot to ketch them Rabbits ???
