Comments about Big Jon/Willie Big Jon Sportsman Electric Downrigger:
The two Big Jon Downriggers were priced right[...] all parts were included along with mounting instructions, and they work great for trolling on Lake Superior. I do thank you!Jim Andrews, Silver Bay, Mn.

Comments about Big Jon/Willie Big Jon Sportsman Electric Downrigger:
A perfect rigger for my 18 ft. Lund, the swivel is a must. Strong and silent with a professional look to it. I have three in use now and never a breakdown. I fish solo quite often so it is nice to just push a button to get the cable out of the water fast. Almost perfect, just needs an automatic shutoff.

Comments about Big Jon/Willie Big Jon Sportsman Electric Downrigger:
I shopped around and this is the best deal on these downriggers I could find if you add in the free swivel bases. A [$] value I couldn't find a better deal anywhere on the internet. The downriggers speak for themself. Big Jon makes high quility riggers. This is one happy guy!

Comments about Big Jon/Willie Big Jon Sportsman Electric Downrigger:
I will use these riggers mainly for salmon and steelhead fishing in lake Ontario or wherever these fish are found.They are easy to use,just push a button up and down to the desired level.No hard work or sweating..very enjoyable.There is nothing I can say that that are bad about these riggers,(just if the fish are not co-operating is my only thing).I would recommend these to all.

Comments about Big Jon/Willie Big Jon Sportsman Electric Downrigger:
Great unit for the money. Bought the Sportsman models instead of the Tournament Electrics due to space concerns. Would like to see Big Jon develop a downrigger ball mount similiar to Cannon that hangs from the boom.

Comments about Big Jon/Willie Big Jon Sportsman Electric Downrigger:
I wanted a strong, good looking, compact downrigger. The other brands were just to big and bulky. I spent months looking on the internet before I found these Big John downriggers at Fish USA. My dad is now thinking about converting his downriggers to some new Big John's.
