I have a black set of outriggers but no easy way to replace the mounts, did you need mounts too?
I will be in Rupert next week and back again in August
How big is the base of the poles? I’ve got a set of outriggers on my 17.5 footer. Had to make some mounts but they turned out slick. I’ll post up some pics when I get home from work
While not a tuna fishing boat I do use my outriggers a few time a year on a local lake. So here’s those pics. Basic tube with a pivot on the bottom. Line that the clips are attached to runs through the ring so the whole thing doesn’t fall off on the waves. And a leg that swings out to keep it at the correct angle. My outrigger poles are 15’ long and 1 1/8” at the base so 1 1/4” tube is perfect. Easy as pie.
Had some and a big jon planerboard mast. Worked great but take up a bit of room in a small boat when not in use. Poles go in the mounts when I hit the water and no storage issues. Not nearly the spread with my poles that I would get with my planerboards but that’s the trade off.
I use my poles on the lake early in spring when I have 4 people in my boat.
Pretty effective for dragging surface flys and bucktails close to shore
