Here's a short video of the Scotty Trap-Eze for those of you that are considering getting one for the upcoming Lobster season. They work particularly well in the deeper water. We had 125' ropes.

Nice clip! I initially had the Trap Eze on the right side, but since I am right handed I thought about range of motion and moved it to the left. You get a longer pull with your dominant arm if you mount it on the opposite side. I also rotated the pully side forward after the first pull to minimize the side-to-side shifts in weight. Not as much of a factor in the PA but I can imagine it coming into play in more chop and a less stable platform. Also more strength pulling more in a front to back direction than side to side

Trap Eze worked great
