sort of mickey mouse
Date:
My friend bought a portable from Cabelas that he was raving about.
I thought it was a Scotty, so I ordered one too.
I thought it would be a fairly heavy duty downrigger, but it's not very strong.
Small handle for cranking, light duty cable, clamp bolt too small, so it crossthreaded as soon as I started to tighten it on the boat..
I called my friend to see why he didn't have these problems.
Found out he didn't buy a Scotty.
To make things worse the model he bought came with a free rod holder and downrigger rod.
I'll do more research next time before I make a purchase.

Scotty should scrap this model
Date:
didn't even get it tightened on to the transom before the threads crossthreaded and jammed.that ruined the first day.
The threaded bolt is obviously not heavy enough.I phoned Scotty and they blamed me.??
I fixeed it myself .
next trip the handle which is too small, broke clean off, and I was only using a 3 lb. ball.
I didn't even call Scotty, I fixed it in my shop and made a heavy duty handle myself.
3rd trip I sangged bottom after about 5 minutes and the whole arm broke leaving it uselss.
I didn't fix it this time , I just threw it in the garbage where it belongs.
I wouldn't even give the Scotty to my worst enemy.
I think I'll build my own downrigger .

Awesome downrigger
Date:
My brother bought two of these portable downriggers and we used it for the first time and it perfomed very well and it did it's thing, on the first day using it I was caught off guard with a 17" trout hitting the lure near the bottom of the lake, the trout snapped the line out of the clip and I thought I had snagged something at the bottom until the fish jumped out of the water.
Highly recommended downrigger.
