Default 'bout ready

Well my cod fishing trip delayed my launch so I got more things done!

New backrest for cooler seating. Finished up the dash. Added a skunk stripe to the gunnels to hide a row of old epoxy filled holes. AND....mounted outriggers on the hardtop!
Gonna have a nice tuna spread this season.

Headed to Shawnee PA for 4 days of golfing and canoeing at the Delaware Water Gap. Hope rain the next few days will get water rising and the smallmouth biting.

so I put the rig out in the field to stay clean. Will launch next week and CATCH SOME STRIPERS!

One of the best looking and functional rigs in my opinion.

Looks great.

I should be launching on Friday. Are the outriggers telescoping?

I agree with Bradford. Looking really nice Skunk. Sweet riggers.

That is one fine looking fishing machine. Nice touch with the skunk stripe. I also really like our cooler set up. How far out will you go to catch those stripers?

Question

Skunk, is that a "Long" brand roller trailer? I scored one off craigslist for cheap and it's built like a tank.
