Best Premium Electric Downriggers Ranked

4 premium electric downriggers.

Last updated: November 3, 2026

A premium electric downrigger adds something the standard units lack. The Scotty High Performance units have a built-in digital depth counter and stop on their own at the line beads. The Cannon Magnum 10 TS has a 316 stainless boom for saltwater, and the Cannon Optimum stores preset depths, tracks the bottom and networks with other units.
