Questions
Hi does this keep weed from rapping around prop
In my experience, my prop guard does not prevent weeds or discarded fishing line, rope, or other material from getting into the prop. I even caught an alligator gar with it a few years back. Gar was probably about 36” but was noseless and tailless by the time I pried his carcass out! The prop guards have saved me many times from grounding, rip rap, rocks, and foreign objects submerged in the river like shopping carts, wheelbarrows, bikes, and electric scooters. Definitely worth the investment.
