    Default Umbrella for boat


    I live in Georgia and the weather is Hot, looking for a way to make my fishing trips more enjoyable, is it worth the money and the added taking it up and down everytime you move your boat from one place to another. Any advice or pictures would be appreciated.

    Millennium "shade tree " . 9 ft. Sportsbrella , from Academy . 10-15 degrees better . Only issue I fish trees and rarely use mine . Quit spider rigging and power trolling so mine gathers dust .

    I haven’t sat I the stumps to jig fish in a while. Pulling crankbaits around 1.5 mph and sitting under an umbrella while watching my rods helps. I have a modified beach umbrella over the front deck and one lifted higher on the back deck so that I don’t hit my head when I hop up there to stand. I need to see how well the Mellinium or Swacker umbrellas fold up to see if I switch to one of them or rework my PVC umbrella stands that use the seat post for support to be more compact.
    If I'm not at work or taking kids to their activities, you might find me on "The Rez" fishing. If not there, I could be in the garage working on my boat.

    I really want this umbrella for livescoping, anyone here on this site use one while they are livescoping.

    I use a Millenium while cranking and it makes a BIG difference FWIW.
