Was looking around on a local classified sight and came across a Cannon sport troll downrigger used only once for 100.00 bucks.I'm not experienced at all with this stuff.Is this a good deal for someone who will on occasion downrig for mostly either lake trout or Quinte walleye.
All opinions are welcome.
Thanks
Ron

Cannon Sport Troll
Greetings,
Bought one this year, and have enjoyed it! Easy to use, responsive, and I am sure easy to load extra line, or just exchange with 150ft or more. Not being mechanical I bought the quick-bracket (whatever its called) instead of drilling, bolting and all those other fun things I don't have time for!
Have used the Sport at Charleston, and Round Lake (Renfrew County) with success at the 90 - 100 range limit of line out. At 100ft out at a slow troll, with a 8lb ball, I was able to mark my line on the fish finder at approximately 90ft. With a head wind and moving slower, the ball was down at about 95 feet. For both lakes mentioned above, I had luck with trout. 
Cheers,
B.
