I went with Scotty, ordered mine over the phone from Canada where they're made through http://www.berrysbait.com/1/01/1003.htm

Figured I saved almost 200 bucks.

Ordered it two days before Christmas got it before new years.

I fish a small boat solo so I went with the 1099 a short boom electric.

Right now they are on sale at Berry's $419 Canadian converts to $313 US

I paid $460 Canadian but back then the dollor was stronger and ended up paying $249 US.

If it wasn't for Berry's Savings I would of gone manual.

More Scotty's...(you just can't touch these prices local)


Strong arm 24 currently sells for $149 (USD)

1050 Depthmaster (104.62 USD)

1060 Depthking (125.54 USD)

Personally I wouldn't buy anything less then a 1060. It has a two foot a turn ratio compared to the 1050's on ft per turn.

The strong arms are bullet proof if I was buying one tomarrow I'd probably go with a strong arm 24.
