Thanks for the video! Very helpful. One thing to mention is this Easy Troll model doesn't come with the cable guide hook. I bought mine thinking it was missing but I see you don't have one either and a call to Cannon's customer service confirmed that it is only supplied with the Uni Troll models even though it is depicted on the owners manual. Thanks!
I compared my Mag10 and the Easi Troll and it looks like without the reduction collar the telescopic boom should work fine. Do you run your downriggers out the side or out the back? Also do you have the rotating bases?
@trollin2021 I actually just bought them and put them on a boat I picked up, next spring will be the first time with this boat in the water, I'm a newbe to downriggers and yes I got swivel bases for them, gonna be a learning process for me but think telescopic be better than the 18 inch boom
For the price of buying two booms I would save the money and buy a Uni Troll. The 2:1 retrieval ration makes a big difference and you get the extendable boom anyways.
Thank you! I bought open box but it had no instructions. Appreciate the help man.

That’s a good point. I believe you can order the one designated for the Uni troll and install it on the Easi troll if you’d like!
i have 2 lake trolls, 18 inch boom, will the telescopic booms fit and would you recommend if so, great vid, thank you

@trollin2021 I mounted them about a foot back on the side, on a 61 sea king
