    Default Anyone?


    Ever shortened a Minn Kota composite shaft? If so what did you use to cut it? I need to trim off about 11 inches.

    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.

    I trimmed my old Terrova 55 shaft that I had on my crappie magnum back in 2012 or 2013, I used a saws all with a carbide blade and was very very careful to make sure I didn't cut into the wires running up thru the center.
