I had 2 of the manual Uni-Troll 10 Cannons that came with my Lund Pro V when I bought it. Never really had any trouble with them but to me they were just to big & bulky & cranking up a 10# ball 60-80' salmon fishing got kind of old after a while. When I sold the boat the downriggers went with it.
When I bought my Lund Alaskan I decided to outfit the boat with 2 Walker Kokanee electric downriggers.
After researching all the different downriggers I discovered the Walkers are the #1 downrigger on most of the charter boats fishing the Great Lakes. The reason being is they are simple & easy to operate & they just flat out hold up.
What I like most about the Walkers is the simplicity & compact size along with the great power they deliver. Mine have the auto-stop feature, I can also "Power Down" with them with out stripping line out of the release, try doing that with your Cannons or Scotty's
The Walkers are right up there in my book & I enjoy using them almost as much as my Terrova I Pilot [cool]
