Does this seem a bit cheap? I have never used outriggers, and figured it is time to get some… if i can find a used cheap set.

was really just looking for the poles, but this seems to be everything fo way cheap.

think they will be junk?

Chris, I have the same ones if you want to try them. The poles are fiberglass and bend fairly easy, the eyes are the same ones of fishing rods and fragile, the clips suck and need to be replaced. But they do work even though they are cheap. The mount requires a hole in the gunnal and if you have railing there they are in the way. I switch them from the scout to the triton. Used a modified bolt on rod holder on the triton tower.

Thanks Ed,
I already have the mounts on my T-top… tink they would work up there?
The angle of them might have them way to high … if they are designed for the gunnell.
Guess i could rig up something. I’ll give you a call next week, maybe i can check them out.
Thanks again

i tried the glass poles they are a little crapy. it depends on what you are pulling to they do bend and pull baits out of the water a good bit. But if you are looking at it from a price stanpoint you can’t go wrong on them. They should work fine from the t-top mounts I would save my money though and buy a pair of Lee poles.

I’ll bring them with me when I get back----somewhere around the 15th…depending when we get the reactor back at power.
