Hanging out by the bar.....

OK, so finally got around to taking a picture of the Bert's system on the boat.

 

There are two 4 foot tracks on the sides with the 8 foot bar across the back.

 

Here is a pic of the whole system:

 

 

One major safety component for the bigger water is that the riggers are mounted much higher up than they were before. This results in a much easier handling of the rods when the salmon hit, with the bar serving as a safety device as you can brace against it.

I'm running the ratchet rod holders which I highly recommend.

 

 

 

Here is a closer shot of the one side:

 

 

I'll be running two sets of Salties off the sides for the inline boards and/or dipseys off the braid and wire.

 

 

 

 

Followed by a side shot:

 

 

 

 

Still to come is the 9.9 kicker which will be added in the spring.

More as an alternate power source as the F-90 does a great job trolling in terms of sound and fuel economy.

In the larger rollers, a single point of power failure is not a good thing!
