Location: oswego, il | The ones have tried or been in the boat wih did not have spot lock. Could not keep it on constant, take your foot off the pedal and it changes direction. I like to be flat footed and don't care for the captain Morgan pose. I can see where a recessed pedal would help with that but then you can't move the pedal to a better location to fish. The boats I have been in if I am working a crankbait, glider or some other slower presentation the motor kicks on and now the bait is well behind the boat and no longer able to work it back. I can see if you can keep it on constant and lock the pedal where that would help however.
I have a hand control on my small boat. For pure quick control I like it the best. Small deck so i am never far from it. My big boat i have a power drive. i like being able to move the pedal around and having the small pedal. agree the pedals go bad on my fourth one. I am also a constant adjuster when it comes to operating it, my ocd moment i suspect.
