| If all you do is cast for muskies you probably won't find it that much better than a trolling motor with regular auto pilot. Basically the only feature you are going to use with any regularity is the spot lock, usually when you want to fan cast or process a fish. If you want to use the advanced auto pilot it can make holding a course easier when dealing with wind. (to a point, 15mph and up is pretty much "good luck" IMO) Overall though, casting and the remote are not very compatible since you really cannot do both at the same time.
However...
If you do more than just cast and chase more than muskies, then the motor is simply amazing. For holding a breakline or fishign for walleyes it is unreal. A great, great tool for fishing deeper structure. One thing to keep in mind: If the new i-link works as advertised, it will have the potential to provide incredible boat control advatanges while working deep structure and deep weed lines with it's horizontal offset feature. That feature has all kinds of potential for musky fishing IMO.
I'm a huge fan of my I-Pilot as well. | |
