    Default Maxxum vs fortrex


    Are the two main differences -
    1. Lift assist on fortrex ?
    2. All fortrexes are digital ?

    When I buy, it will most likely be used.

    fortrex can also be converted to I-Pilot and keep the pedal

    Interesting. Will that give spotlock capabilities? Does it require a puck?

    my bad, mine isn't fortrex, it's terrova terrova is electric steer the fortrex is cable steer thought I'd better clear that up before someone else catches it. That said, I do also have a maxxum pro 80lb. Depending on the type of fishing I plan to do I switch them out Terrova for spider rigging and maxxum for up in the brush. Maxxum steers faster terrova will run by itself

    it helps, but sometimes I just release the catch and drive it up.
