What the anglers say.
Know before you go.
Shuttle Buddy is a line of products that make moving around out on the ice with FFS much more user friendly and efficient. The core of the system is the Sidewinder which is the apparatus that holds the transducer pole. The Sidewinder is attached to the electronics shuttle with the Quick Draw Swivel mount. Mount multiple Quick Draws to your shuttle for maximum flexibility.
The Quick Draw is the receiver that gets mounted to the side or back of the FFS electronics shuttle or to the Flex Frame. The Quick Draw is then used to attach and remove the Sidewinder.
The Sidewinder is the apparatus that securely holds the transducer pole. The Sidewinder attaches to the shuttle via the Quick Draw Swivel mount. The entire system allows for one hand deployment and removal of all your FFS electronics so the other is free to hold rods and other gear when moving around on the ice!
The Flex Frame was exclusively designed for shuttles that have the "blackbox" electronics mounted on the back wall of the shuttle. The Flex wraps around the shuttle creating an exoskeleton and multiple mounting locations for the Quick Draw Swivel mount. The multiple mounting locations for the Quick Draw allow the user to move the Sidewinder from the side to the back depending on how they want to fish. Attaching the Sidewinder to the back works great in a portable fish house while moving it to the side allows for a run and gun scenario.
