In a lot of the vids Mike is fishing out of his white Skeeter, I see this thing that looks similar to a toilet seat mounted on his boat. Anyone have a clue what it is? I wonder every time I see it.

It is a Prototype I don't know if they have all the bugs worked out yet I would say no if he did not have them at the musky show

It was a concept prototype for tournament fishing. Basically they run the rod into it and then pull the bait right through the fibers and it takes the weeds off the bait so they can make another cast right away. The model they had on the shows did not look to me like it would work as desired though. Not sure where they are at with the concept now.

So, it's a giant Whisker Biscuit for the boat.

Talked to mike at the boat landing his fall and he said that it works good on heavy baits but not on other stuff. And he called it a giant wisker biscuit. Just something he's messing around with I think.

When I looked at it I thought the size could be reduced by half. I also suggested that there was multiple rings of fibers, at various angles & lengths so no matter what bait you would have tension on the bait when pulled through. Done right it could remove everything but the paint!!

Can I get one of those to hang off the side of my boat?
