I think @Eric Low tried these last year while he was in Florida for the winter. Maybe he can give you some feedback on them.

Have 2 on my 36v motor guide. Wouldn't fish in Florida without them. Soft weeds, will though, stack on your shaft and bog you down until cleared. For stiffer weeds like wire grass and pads it works great at full power or near so. I also raise the motor so prop is just under the surface. Minn Kota are better in the weeds. I would think it eould make them more so. Ninja blade uses 3m tape now to attach to the motor. I have had no issues after a year of use with the tape. Lost the first one that I epoxied on.

Hard to believe that 3M tape holds better than epoxy

I believe that 3M tape is what holds keel protectors (except Hamby's) on.

I believe you're right. It's good stuff. Just hard to believe it holds better than epoxy.

I had a keel protector come loose at the back. I tried all kinds of epoxy. A guy I know is a research chemist from Loctite. He sent me some of their very best epoxy. Even it didn't hold for very long. I will say that the epoxy paint you used on those jig heads is sure holding very well.
