The main place I fish is on a lake below the spillway, Sardis lake in N MS if you want to pull it up on google earth. The water can be calm, but then waves move in from the spillway. I like to head into the waves so it gives the jigs more action when they are there. Messing with a fish or a line, getting turned side ways when a big wave moves in can get hairy.

I made some outriggers a few years back to convince my wife our kids wouldn't flip the canoe. I looked at the YAK ones but couldn't justify the price. Ended up using some crab pot floats, PVC I had in the garage and two Scotty rod holders. The canoe became more stable than I thought it would. Both kids could sit on the same gunwale and it easily stayed above the waterline.

I saw a picture of one made with dock bumpers and 3/4" PVC.

I saw one on a canoe that used two adjustable flag pole brackets to hold the outrigger arms. They could be used a what angle he wished or up for travel.

The Grumman canoe is about 36 inches wide, it should be pretty stable. Got my eyes on one if the price is right. Could use aluminum tubing from a folding lawn chair and a large diameter pool noodle. I saw one that used flagpole mounting bases so it would retract for storage.
