Need an Outboard Propeller Guard
« on: June 06, 2018, 09:52:32 AM »

I'm working at adding trolling to my fishing repertoire and have learned that having a propeller guard can save a lot of frustration (and gear) in helping to keep fishing and downrigger line out of the prop.  There are other advantages as well like; focusing propeller thrust and helping to keep swimmers feet away from accidently meeting the prop.

Long story short, I spent a lot of time on the internet, and the phone, trying to not only find one, but get the right size.  There's a few around the Lower Mainland but all were wrong size or EXPENSIVE!!

I eventually connected with a Victoria company named Bite Me Too that make a broad, quality range - and their prices are very reasonable.  They ship fast as well - ordered Friday and it was here in Surrey on Monday. 

Their design seems to be very well thought out and are custom designed for each engine manufacturer.  They even powder-coat in the engine colours.  Yamaha's are grey, Honda's silver, Merc black,...
