Don't get too hung up on having a hauler on your yak for the opener. You should be hooping fairly shallow at the start of the season, so the pulls should be pretty easy...15' to 45' is a quick pull if your pulling at 175' to 200' a minute.
The conical nets put a lot of torque on the spot where you mount your hauler. Private boaters need to make sure they have solid welded pole holders where they mount their haulers so I'd be careful on a yak.

Thanks Jim. I expect to only be pulling in 15'-40'. Should I even bother with the Scotty pull-eaze?
