Its a great idea, it looks like it will work similar to a trim tab. However........ How are you keeping it from going sideways? If one of the sides gets kelp or grass or whatever caught in on it the drag of whatever is hung up on it will cause the tab to turn sideways. If the tab is sideways my guess is that the motion of the kayak going up & down will cause drag on whatever side the tab is on and will in turn cause the kayak to go down or up in a sideways motion. I'm thinking that you'll have the same results when you're turning in rough seas. With the above being said another thing that can happen is that the up & down motion of the kayak will result in unwanted pressure being placed on the plate and may cause it to snap, best thing that can happen is that the plate will snap and your pole will remain straight. Anyway......that's my thought. good luck

the 6 hours I spent in the ocean the other day didn't budge it, so I guess its still good. If it does move ill just readjust with my paddle.

2015 PA rail mounts
Hobie does not make rail mounts for scotty products for the 2015 PA. With all the scotty's i have i don't want to replace them all. So i bought some extra Ram ball rail mounts from Andy "ICEMAN" and it was really easy to adapt. 10922818_10203371976201131_5125099309287967694_n.jpg Remove ram ball from clamp and replace with scotty mount, use the same screw but have to add a 1/4" spacer at the bottom then use the same nut that was on the ram ball. Not really a innovation but it solved my problem!

Was bored today since I didn't go fishing, so I upgraded my cheap $10 gaff and $10 bat with some paracord since I still have about 900 ft left. After I wrapped it, I soaked it and let it dry since paracord shrinks after getting wet. Feels real solid and didn't use any adhesive. Hopefully it holds.

Rod holder
Made a rod holder to lay my pole down without it flopping around.

Good tip. I'll keep that in mind. My experience with paracord, just getting it wet in general seems to shrink. If it doesn't hold, I'll do the boiling water next.

That's a good one, especially for rough launches and landings! I dig it!

Nothing crazy but i made this achor line with what i was able to find around the house (with the exception of the red/white floats). Tuck the paracord under the zip-tie clip and pass it throught the figure 9 carabiner and itll hold up. Plus if i hook into a big boy i can unclip quickly, handle business, and then go back to my floating line |
