New spider in town

Got my B&M poles for my birthday in October.

Last week Gene at spyderLok set me up right with the rod holders.
They look amazing. Quality units. Gene has been fantastic to work with, helping me pick the right set up and showing me the options available.

Ordering my reels(if i can make up my mind on which ones), and line, tonight.

im gonna make my own two seat mount for the front, utilizing two of the old boat seats that are in the boat. Then come spring(or sooner if i find the right deal), ill upgrade the main boat seats.

I should be all set for my spyder riggin adventures this spring.
Im super excited.

Sounds like you getting ready. Right stuff that's for sure. Good luck.

Stick with Millenium and get their seats. Billbob bought a couple down in Sippy last fall while we were down there. I got to sit on them at his camp site for the duration of a six pack...so about 2 hours...they are comfortable. The mesh is amazingly cool in hot weather.

Back in the Spring I changed out my boat seats with the Millennium seats from Gene.....This Fall I changed out my rod holders to the Millennium Spyder Loks....love them.

I did too. Good choice.

Do the seats fit fellas with lots of "junk in da trunk"? :Rofl

Im a big fella, I come from a big family. For some reason the seats look small to me. :dono

Ordered my reels. 6 Abu Garcia Black Max II Baitcast off eBay.
Stumbled on them cheap. Otherwise I was ginna go a different route. I think they will do just fine, and if not I'll sell them and get different.

Got line ordered from Vicious, using my 25% off card I got at Fall Crappie Camp.

Now all I need are cup holders and a new stereo. Then I need the lake to freeze and thaw quickly!

Don't forget bbgmarine.com for all your electronic needs. Brian is awesome to work with and gives the best deals on radios, fish finders, ram mounts..... I don't know how he does it, but I'm glad he does

Seats fit fine, I am 260 and no problems.

2x on BBG marine. Best prices you'll find!!! And shipping is pretty low

After first of the year I'll get on the electronics. He will be my first call for sure. I've heard all good things about his shop.

Seats a a lot wider than most boat seats.....they are good and strong....best thing is you can sit in them all day and I have arthur bad and they do not bother me

Get back on the phone and call Gene, he has some that mount to the SpyderLoks.

Yea I seen those. :ThumbsUp
Im going to get the plastic ones that I can install by the steering column, passenger seat, and two back seats. so when I use my boat for other things besides Spyder Rigging, I can still have a beverage close by.
