I don't understand it. I sorda get the iPilot...sorda, but not hand control units. Anytime you take a hand off your rod/reel you aren't fishing as effectively as possible. Just my .02.

I used to get really tired standing and rigging but now I can rig all sitting down with my hand control trolling motor. LMAO. Right. You don't understand it.

Same with dimmer constant on floor switch.. don't like the momentary.. turn on slow and let her go.. very seldom touch with hand. Can't remember missing a fish because of hand on the handle.. Two many broken cables during tournaments to take anymore chances with foot.. JMO
