Out riggers
Submitted by just dhu it on Fri, 2011-11-11 16:12
I am looking at buying some 12 ft out -rigger poles and bases for my rig and wonder what bases most guys use , i have looked at the relax bases with the spine slot for various positions but have been told that you can catch your fingers in them whilst changing out on the water , also these dont appear to give alot of variation on pole positioning , the two others ,one has two sections that can be adjusted for angle out and pole position up and down similar to a radio antennae base in stainless but dont look very strong , the third only gives flat or 45 degree angle out and is abit more solid constuction, sorry no names or brands on the other two

the reelax are the most
the reelax are the most popular ones, allow easy mounting of the rigger onto the base on the water, some of those antenna type of bases unless the really really good brands like tigress etc are shit, they are week and will break, personally unless you want to spend big dollars just get something with reelax bases
