To me when set to go super shallow the motor gets to high to side arm over, but for pure musky fishing you shouldn't have an issue as your not skipping under docks.


You should be.


Please, don't encourage the KVD wannabes. I have holes from musky bait hooks in the mooring cover of my pontoon boat, which sits three feet above the water on a lift. Dents in the aluminum skirting on the rear of the pontoon from lures. I watched a guy ding the motor on my fishing boat also on lift with what looked to be a double ten. I don't know if he and his partner had raised a musky or what but they persisted in throwing baits around my lifts and boats. Apparently neither of them had an educated thumb because they hit the dock (multiple times), the vertical supports on the lift, etc. I walked out, grabbed a nine foot rod with the big weagle on it and took a few casts. I can throw that about 50 yards. They got the hint and moved on. But, just about everyone I know has had damage to moored boats or covers from clumsy anglers. The water belongs to everyone but the boats don't.


Yikes! Sounds like there needs to be a casting class or something. Having not lived where I have a dock of my own, it never occurred to me it would be an issue since the objective is to put the bait in the water, where the fish are.
