Retoolin' the Lowe

**kingkrappie** · 02-04-2012, 10:20 PM

Did something I've been threatenin' to do for a while now, moved my trollin motor to the dead center, no more havin to pick up my trollin poles every time I move, scooted my rod racks to the edges and put my fancy hi-tech stuff depth finder riser on, no more reachin down to mark spots, thanks Alabama, only took 7 beverages!

That's the first I've heard of center mounting the trolling motor. Interesting idea.

seen that done in several pics, but not sure I would want to lose the space there, fraid I might trip over it and go OB.

Where did you purchase the mounting bracket for your depth finder? I have been thinking of using the same set up but I was going to build mine. I like the aluminum. It would match everything else I have up front. Thanks

Lowe 180w. My fishin partner inherited his grandpas old tracker last year, he was a salty ole crappie fisherman and modified everything on the boat, thats where i got the idea, id moved the TM once before, wasnt hard to do, I'm never up there unless the trollin motor is down, and the decks too big anyway, plenty room to roam. The riser is from hitek stuff, Callshy on here, available at Grizzly. I'll post a few more pics when it's all cleant up.
