Location: Tinley Park. Fish Cen IL. Bass & Vilas Cty.Muskie | Get yourself a Hamby hull protector and fiqure out a good place to store your net. I use to drape it over the big motor but now use rod straps to drape it over my console. I know there are better places. |

| Anyone own a true Bass boat with a tiller/spare motor?
Could be a big deal on larger lakes, rivers, or remote locations... whether you troll or not. |

Yep, one of my main fishing partners has a stratos with a 225 yammy. He also has a mid 60's 6hp evenrude that purrs like a kitten. He made a bracket and steering rod in the Fab shop where he works. We have salmon and musky trolled with it. He uses the setup on lotw as a backup just in case. |

I know some guys put a trolling bracket on a Talon bracket. Talked to a fella this fall in the parking lot that had the setup. He said it was rock solid. |

| 50# talon, 100# kicker... wouldn't go bombing around in rough waters but in a bass boat you can literally put the kicker in the 3rd rod locker till you blow up the main motor. |
