Hello,
I live in the tidewater area. Im am looking to purchase a spider rig for my 17 foot lowe boat. Could someone tell me which one is the best and where to purchase it.

Thanks

Agree with Corker. These are the best. I have used most all brands and these I. Like the most. Easy to install and remove . Easier rod removal and placement with no interferences. Not as bulky with low profile. cost is a little more but well worth it.

I like Driftmasters. I like being able to adjust the angle of the holder. Are the Hi-Tek's adjustable in case your rod tip is too close or too far from the water?

I recommend the T-250-H Trolling bars from Driftmaster. I guide and I have used them ever since they were made. I have gotten many great comments on them from clients also. I say this because I really do love them and I also sell them. Check them out at Extreme Fishing Concepts There is a sale going on with no shipping on orders over $100.

Yes, up/down or sideways. Completely adjustable.

You could point your rods straight up, straight down, backwards, or any other position in between--mix or match rod angles if you want. The T-bar is round, so you can elevate/rotate 360* by loosening the bolts under the holders you want to reposition. While these bolts are loose, you also have 360* horizontal panning adjustment. The single bolt in the center of the T-bar (where my wrench is shown) allows you to rotate the entire bar 360*. When I set the bolts on the loose side, I can make minor adjustments by hand. When I tighten them firmly, my rods break before the adjustment slips. And yes, I've broken 3 that way. One line got hung up in the motor, another wrapped up on a log or stump, and the third rod was angled too low & nose-dived when I was running at full TM speed.
