Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | I have used them both and there is not much of a choice. My Pro PMTT partners 620VS has the Scotties and I have the DownEast on my 620VS. Hands down the DownEast is the superior rod holder. It is more adjustable and lasts longer.
One other + for the DownEast is the quickness you can get your rod out of the holder. Lift straight up and fight the fish on the DownEast or turn the lock and pull the rod away from you and then bring it back to fight the fish on the Scotties.
Metal vs plastic = DownEast
Both will work great but if you compare them, its a easy choice. |
