What about spray rails?

Somethng you might want to consider is asking Kman to put the receiver for a stablizer kit pole on the bow of the boat. For hunting the stablizer kit (front and back) are a must, however I use my bracket up front for fishing all of the time and love it.

When I hook a red fish and set the hook, I manage to grab my cajun anchor and slide it down the front stablizer bracket. It stops my boat in its' tracks (just like the concept of a "Power Pole"). This is beneficial to me so that I do not disturb the rest of the pond while fighting a red fish. It is also prevents a large red fish from pulling me around in my boat. I use this system as an anchor anytime I am in shallow water. Works great to hold my position for a few minutes while I work an area or cut. If I am in deeper water, then I can use my longer spud pole.


Here is a pic of the stablizer kit.



Here is a pic and video where you can see how I use this stablizer kit while fishing. I have a rope tied to the cajun anchor which is like a solid SS metal 6' pole.




Kent says no can do on the spray rails on the 62" hull, I'll end up doin somethin with that on my own i am sure!
