Modding my Fishing Ship aka Pondtoon

Actually, I modified the EZ Poleholder. Three positions were too much, so I used som scrap 2 inch x 1/4 inch stock and made me a two pole holder using the parts from the three pole holder. The bar is a little wider than the original, but the price was free. Now, I can go 2 or 3 by changing the parts. I doubt I will ever use 3 positions again.

I also made an Ipilot holder. I modified an old ram mount I had from the HP Ipaq days. Works fine. The problem was to overcome the odd shape of the remote and keep the remote secure.

I hate anything hanging around mt neck.

My auto deploy of Rickie"s daducer apparatus works great. Nothing better than sitting on your butt and pushing a button and make things happen. Actually, I built this for my safety.

I will make a short vid of the daducer and the Ulterra on a simultaneous deploy one day. Pretty cool stuff.

Good mods Tom . I use the Hi-Tek holders and during the winter I jigged with 1 rod in each hand. Problem was the fish came on say the left hand, what to do with the one in the right. Even a 2 pole holder got in the way sometimes. I made a plate to hold just one holder on each side to cover my needs. Did trick just fine. Come warmer weather I would reconfigure for what I was doing then, mostly 4 pole setups.
You, my friend, have the ride. I could just sit and watch it all work for at least a couple of hours. Thanks for sharing it with us unskilled folks.

Tim, I wouldn't call any fisherman unskilled. I have seen some amazing stuff brought to life here on CC. My tool box is just filled with different tools than most folks, that's all.

Mr Tom, when my Pondtoon grows up I want it to be just like yours! :-)))))))))

Nice Tom. USS Guber Port of BS
