I like it! We could see the fish a long way away, and it would put me above all your crap in the boat, so I don't hit it while trying to cast. I'll try to have it on there before next trip. :thumbup:

Don't laugh John, that's what Freddy has on his boat, except it conduit inside pvc..
When he was building it, I laughed and said, the first time he was in 2-3's and a little wind it would come apart, but it's been 2-3 years now and it's still holding up.. I have to admit, it's better than no shade at all, and it didn't cost $2000.
I think, he said he had $60 in it. 'Course, he just replaced the blue tarp at another 8 or 10 bucks. :-D
