Thread: Long lining?

i pull from the front ,look at the rodholder in front of the console,like keeping rods close to where im setting

That's what I am thinking of doing, any trouble with the rods slipping in those Hi-Teks when a catfish hits?

have had trouble with my short rods with the old style hiteks if i had my reels turned upward,with reels down they would never try to jump out.scott sent me the new style last year and i havent used them enough to give my opinion yet,but they look like u could turn ur reel either way and they wont try to jump out,u poles set in a deeper grove on the new style

Thanks for the input, dont guess I have seen the new ones.

dont know if this pic will show it good enough or not,but if u bought ur hiteks in the last 1 1/2 -2 yrs they should be the new style

Yeah, I can see the difference and it does look like it would hold better, thanks.
