As fun as this does not sound, many experienced fishermen have done
just that when their trolling motor cable breaks during a tournament.
The Tournament Saver is your basic “Fisherman’s Insurance Policy” for
trolling motor cable breakage.
Kerry Norwood, an accomplished
tournament fisherman has developed a product he calls, “Tournament
Saver”. The idea for the “Tournament Saver” came when, during a
particularly big tournament, Kerry’s foot control trolling
motor cable
broke from wear and tear. Kerry tried to fish the rest
of the day by
paddling, and various other hopeless methods, but
realized very
quickly that his day and the tournament were finished.
He then set out to design a product that would save him if this ever
happened again. After several models and many components, Kerry came
up with the present, “Tournament Saver”.
Made of lightweight
aluminum tubing, and small enough to store in the bottom of a rod box,
the “Tournament Saver” can be installed in minutes to all trolling
motor shafts using only a screwdriver.
In today’s society you can buy insurance for most anything. Now every
tournament, and pleasure fishing trip, fishermen can insure themselves
against trolling motor cable problems with the “Tournament Saver”
