Hello Fish-Hawkers

First Post....

I was looking into purchasing a motor mount for my canoe. I went to every canoe/fishing shop I could think of without any luck. The closest I came was the Paddleshack but they were out.

So I decided to build my own:

Works like a charm. sturdy too.. I've hit trees and bottom pretty hard.

Checked out Paddle shack this week and they retail for $99. They look good, but I like mine.
Most importantly, I've been out with it a few times this summer. Here are a few pics...

Good Job man... i think alot of people would have gotten discouraged and given up... but u went the extra mile man... nice fish too!!!

JaY

Slick Eyes there Brudda!

Good job!

Thanks for the compliments!!! The second Walleye pic is my PB. Chunky fish... GOOD fight!!! As always, pic doesnt do it justice

Its worked out well so far. Its nice to get into areas most cant with bigger boats. The electric motor makes fishing a breeze from a canoe. I promise, more fish pics to come!!!

I'm having the same problem finding a mount in stock somewhere. Great job on yours, I like the idea!

Padleshack has mounts in stock for $99.

They look good too. But dont compare to mine

you seems to have a lot of stuff in that canoe.

mabe some outriger could be a next good project.

there supper easy to do.

insulation and some eletrical pipe.and some clam.

joco

here 2 pict frome the net..frome one model i no..there a lot off other model but that one.is realy sheap and super easy to make.





that way..no more danger and stand up to cast and see the follows...


or that one...still easy and not to expensive..nice on kayak or canoe.




joco

I considered an outrigger. I thought it might get in the way when landing fish?? Does you Kayak have an outrigger? How does that work out? It would be nice to have that stability though....

that's one great idea
