Denny 0 Report post Posted March 27 Looking to add a couple electric downriggers on my R200ES. Anyone find a good place to mount them? Also looking at either Scotty or Canon, what’s your preference? Pros/Cons? Thanks Denny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smoke 0 Report post Posted March 28 I have a R222 and I mounted mine with gimbal mounts and Cannon 12V plugs so they can easily be removed when I just want to cruise. Check out Magnum Metalz downriggers. They are cheaper more compact and have more pulling power than any other brand and I have tried or used them all. The only thing they do not have is auto stop but with the clutch mechanism they have you do not need it. Very nice riggers! http://www.magnum-metalz.com/downriggers-1/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BZR222 0 Report post Posted May 18 I run two Scotty 1106Bs and replaced the rod holders in position 1 with equipment from Burnewiin and mounted the downriggers to their equipment. I also use it the same equipment for a pot puller. I installed power outlets on the underside of the gunwale, so they would be out of the way. Scotty/Canon is like a Ford/Chevy thing. I have a Scotty repair shop close by, so I figured I would go that way in case I have an issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
