Without a prop on the Bixpy my concern is still getting the line snagged somewhere on the drive when it's in the rear of the yak and inaccessible to a solo angler...
What are your thoughts...Raskal...?
I remember when i went out with Frank to rocky point and he got his line caught in his prop on his rear mounted torqueedo on his trident. He was a sitting duck until I could finish with what I was doing and untangle the line from his prop. He would probably be still out there today if it wasn't for me. You're welcome Frank.
