[ricqik]

also gearing up with more new gear....

after losing 2 combo's last yr n having 2 spinning reel go out on me. i just got 2 new baitcast combo's n 2 spinning reels. I'm now at 8 combo's...

[ricqik]

decided to add a ultra lite to the mix, making it 9.... "phew" good thing i don't have as much gear as bla n phocy

powerpole is next on the shopping list.......... ...

Someday I'll have those. Do you plan on getting only one or two? I think if you get one, you'll might as well purchase two - its worth the trouble.

[ricqik]

i'll try one first, i think it's enough to hold unless it's 2' waves....... then in that case i wouldn't be fishing that beat up shoreline anyways.

i've been thinking about a powerpole also.....

ricqik, how much for the 8'

I believe those will run you for $1000-1500 after you put everything together (mounting bracket, poles, setup, etc). Just save $3k and get two.

that's not bad at all..........h mm...... One should be ok....as long as I get the 8' i'd be good...very tempting.....I will have one on my boat.

I wonder if you just have one power pole, will the boat swing around if there's current and/or wind???

Yes it will... that's why I'm telling rick and them to go the extra yard and get two right off the back. If you get one and it's windy, it'll swing the boat around so you'll still need to be on the trolling motor to keep your spot still.

Started working on my boat this weekend. Changed out lower unit grease, cleaned out oil/gas filter, took out spark plugs. This weekend I'll install the recessed trolling motor tray. pix to come.

lol agreed. The one that looks best in my opinion is the comfortroll tray. That's the one I'm getting. Its a little spendy (about $140) but it looks like it came from the factory.

I got mine from tacklewarehous e with free shipping since it's over $50 bucks. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Comfortroll/descpage-COMFTR.html

hmm, they all look 2000 late... i might as well just use a square bucket

seriously, so 2000 late looking. they could've rounded the edges n angle more.
