Video - My wife's first halibut (29") using Bixpy Jet

I placed the GoPro at a new spot and it only took a video of her.
Will be relocating it and hope to add a second one.

Good stuff!  What a battle...

Sorry for the unlucky halibut.  It had many opportunities to escape but my Gamakatsu hook worked.

Thank you again for your help.

Awesome, good job.

Cool video, BTW its a site rule that you keep the same report in one thread.  Or just add your video to your original report.

sorry, I will delete the new post and move to the old one.
Thank you for letting me know about the site rule.
Is there a location where I can learn the rule?

Its not a big deal.  Being an OG  here, It was a hot discussion several years ago to keep things in order.  Sorry, I can't find the original thread.

Since I am still new to the board, any other guideline you can provide.
Also, it might be helpful to summarize the board use guidelines to new members.

Feisty halibut!

        What do you think about the Bixpy Jet?       Pro's  Con's ?

Awesome, way to go 👍

A summary review is that it is worth $1,000 compared to $800 mirage drive

I made several improvements and Bixpy can use some more modifications to make more user-friendly.

Pros.
My wife can relax and enjoy fishing more (she had knee pains)
It generates as much power as her.

Cons
More items to carry (battery, remote, safety switch...)
Have to recharge the battery after each use (Campsite bathroom)
The connects need to be kept clean

Feel free to ask any additional questions.

How many hours do you get out of a single charge?

What's the top speed and how long can you go that fast?

The following is the manufacturer's performance chart but it is at the optimal condition.  Based on my experience, you can multiply the chart by 70% get true performance.
