WX1850/DOWNRIGGERS

Does anyone have any pics of their skeeter WX1850 with down riggers mounted to the boat. I am trying to get an idiea how they will look and were to mount them.

Look into traxtech products, you can mount a track anywhere and then mount your riggers to the tracks, that way you can easily remove the riggers when you want to

Here are some pics.

Thanks guys I just bought two big john electric down riggers. I will have to remove the rear cleat on the pass. Side because I have 60″ rails.

As mentioned, get the Traxtech. I added 6′ two years ago and will have them for life now. So versatile. It is a chunk of change but worth every dime.

Secondly, Even if you go with the short 6″ tracks they will cover the cleat hole nicely. Traxtech also makes a cleat that fits into the track too so you can have it when riggers are off.

I have an 1880. I wound up shortening the 60″ rails just past the center support and capped the rail with a stainless insert. I then mounted a 24″ Berts track just ahead of the rear cleats. I backed the track with 1/4 aluminum stock under the gunnel. The 24″ track is nice as I can put a downrigger and two Berts holders on the same track. I have two holders on each rigger so I can stack each one. I run a Dipsey on the first Bert holder and run boards off of the front holders. I dont like the tube holders for walleye fishing so I use scotty holders with track adaptors for trolling for eyes. I use two track adaptors with extensions and I have my tallest extension mounted on the rail. I love my set up!
