I'm considering switching to 15 lb (from 12 lb) cannonballs on my Scotty electric DR's (1106's) in hopes of fishing a little deeper with more precision. The DR's are 5-8 years old. Has anybody had problems or experience with the heavier balls on those? Speaking with the Scotty rep I know, he said they're not really "rated" for that. He didn't exactly give me the green light (knowing that if I burned up the motor, it'd come back to Scotty), but he acknowledged that he knows lots of folks who do that without too many problems, and didn't give me the red light either.
Does anybody have an opinion or experience on this?
Thanks,
