Quick take

An electric downrigger with a long boom for deep trolling from larger boats.

The Scotty 1106 Depthpower is an electric downrigger built for larger boats, with a stainless boom that telescopes from 36 to 60 inches and collapses for storage. It runs on 12-volt power, carries 250 feet of stainless cable, and comes with a rod holder, line release and a swivel pedestal mount. Trollers working deeper water for salmon, lake trout or walleye can pick it to take lures down to a set depth.
