Jim Treliving, the friendly Dragon, shakes Chester Yeum's hand at the tail-end of their pitch after they agreed to one million dollars for 33% of FishHunter Kayak Fish Finder company..
In October 2015, Season Ten of CBC's Dragons' Den, Episode Two detailed Canadian fishing technology developed by Michael Smith and Chester Yeum at their lab in Mississauga.
Their smartphone controlled sonar fish finder and accompanying fishing app was painstakingly tested and tweaked by users over the last two years; there's talk about FishHunter on Alberta Outdoorsmen, and a couple different Ontario fishing forums. .
In September the duo unveiled their fifth product innovation which is very sophisticated and has patent pending innovations like 3D directional casting and other cool features - but of course this occurred after filming. Remember they taped the show back in March when the Mark V prototype was nearing completion, but not done yet.
The new gadget is designed and built with kayak fishing in mind. Unlike other Dragons' who expressed reluctance to fund the team's 'past mistakes', as Dragon Michael Wekerle rather cynically labeled their R&D to this point, Jim sensed that the portable sonar product had finally arrived and he 'got hooked'.
