Co-Plot vs I-pilot
Which one of these remotes do you like best for pulling live bait? I have been using the Co-pilot for several years, and i like it because its so small, fits on the wrist and you hardly know its there. However i have not used the I-pilot.
Your thoughts?

I like the I-Pilot except when throwing my net. Get it caught up all the time unless I sort of lay it over my shoulder before I throw.

Just note that the small remote is not setup to use as a wrist strap - just one hole - but I'd bet that's easily enough solved with some Velcro or the like

Don't really understand why Minn Kota don't offer it that way  Do you use the wrist strap? Nice fish you Travis and Tyler were catching....... Ill be on your new stringer in a week or so  |

I've not gotten the small remote. Just use the hand remote on a clip to my bibs or jeans or shorts or whatever. Only time I have an issue is occasionally when throwing the net - or loading the net, the Braille lines will catch the remote - but not big enough a deal to change.

I have the small remote on my neck lanyard(the regular one, not the I pilot), and mine will get stuck in the cast net. I slip it inside my shirt when throwing the net. The buttons are pretty easy to feel thru the shirt so I can still operate the TM.

Maybe around....ummm....ummmmm...can't remember the names of those dang creeks. Hit my head one too many times. Stringer?? |

I wouldn't know what to do in the presence of good fishermen. |
