[InshoreTroll]

Just wanted to show off my rig. Been on this webiste for a year but never posted a pic of it. I dreamed of owning a boat since I was young. Purchased this boat 2 yrs ago when I was 24. Its my first boat. Finally got a pic of it on the water. Wishin I was fishin...

nice rig, I like the black boot stripe. but what is stopping you from fishing. according to the bass barn s jersey is pretty hot right now with stripers. I am considering a run from DE myself in the next week. (that is if I dont go down with the stomach bug as I am up right now due to one of my kids puking)

Nice Boat, I have wanted to get some pictures of mine on the water and in motion but it has not happened yet...Maybe this year . Not to pick on your photo but I noticed your antenna's have a "gangster lean" to them. I know it looks cool but VHF is transmitted on a vertical polar field and that lean can reduce your output dramatically. I would keep that in mind if you find yourself really needing it.

Maxout, take a close look again, the 2 VHF antennas are straight up, 90 degrees to the roof. The out riggers, mounted on the side of the house, are leaned back.

Lots of stuff on the roof... I like that look. 8)

Inshore Troll, did you get your Parker that way our did you rig it?

Hey Inshore.. Nice Ride..
I recall seeing you on the water out of LEI..

Lee Jr outriggers...! I'm jealous!
Can you post some detail photos of how the bases are mounted when you get a chance?

 

[InshoreTroll]

Thanks for the compliments guys. Unfortunately, I cannot take all of the credit for rigging the boat. The guy I purchased from it did all of the work from electronics to the "roof ornaments" as well as outriggers. He did an amazing job. Ive made some minor adjustments and want to customize it some more(shore power,autopilot, and fishing utilities)...hence why I like this site. Those slanted poles are my riggers as HM5 stated. Dont worry about the confusion . Mega Byte...Ill post detailed pics as soon as I get the boat back for its in the shop for some TLC. Ive fished out of LEI all my life...What kind of fishing to you do HotRod???? Faithful...what port u heading out of DE for trolling??? If you need an extra guy...Id love to see how you use those planer boards.

Just tenatively making plans now. It would probably be a weekday out of OCMD as it stands currently (I dont want to have to pull a $50 fishing license for a day of fishing in DE waters). It is a shorter tow to DE for me but I would have to run to NJ to fish legally. I may be better off towing about 20 min longer to Ocean City Maryland and fishing MD waters. A lot depends upon weather this time of year (as well as work and wife). I also have an appt to take my boat back to Judge and have 4 or 6 more rod holders welded on to my support bars.

Ooops..sorry...antenna's look good. Mistaken for out riggers.

ahhhh.......does this mean I can't double duty my VHF antennas as outriggers anymore? I'm not gonna change mine till after Jan 20!

Hooked Up, Good name for a Parker :wink:

Good Idea! The length of the ouriggers would probably make up for the loss. :lol: Besides I hate the VHF radio when I am trying to fish. I usually turn it off as chatter drives me batty and it never fails someone leaning on the mic all day :x
