| I think he means casting platform, rather than "stool." You don't sit on them, you stand on them to get higher above the water.
My front Just Encase box is of a size I can pick it up onto the front deck and stand on it, which I sometimes do in calm seas. But if it's rocking at all, I stay on the deck.
I don't think they've caught on in muskie fishing because while there is some sight fishing with muskies, you never hear the term "put it on the plate" in muskie fishing like you do in salt. You're not casting a tiny crab or crab fly to a tailing redfish at 60' and need to see it. It' just not as much about visibility of the fish as it is for many of the saltwater species. Then like you said, the 8 would be tougher.
I'm not saying it doesn't have it's place with muskies, I just don't think you'll see a market for them any time soon. Just like towers on bay boats now...you'll not be seeing those on 620's any time soon because visually spotting a fish isn't as important as it is in salt. | |
