2013 Lowe FM 185 WT Setup

[Cha-Sea]

I recently bought a 2013 Lowe FM 185 Pro WT as an option to take out on other lakes when Lady O is too rough for the salmon boat. Getting started thinking about how I want to trick it out and have a bunch of ideas.

The sides have a low profile gunnel track but very few products advertised that will fit that. Any suggestions for things that have worked for you guys? Thinking three rods on each side and ond downrigger  per side.

Thanks,

Dave

if you want downrigger mounts made to fit that track system, look up fine tuned welding on facebook.  He made me a set but mine was the 45 degree track.  he also makes rod trees and really nice single rod holders

you might also want to check out the traxstech swivel track mounts. I'm not just sure what lengths they have but I used a set of the 4" rise with a set of Big Jon electric riggers mounted on my tracks and they worked beautifully.

Good recommendations, thanks. Some very nice products.

Looks like a sweet setup for Oneida and the finger lakes

You should look into the options at Cisco. Was able to have them make me up 90 degree mounts for my lowe. Not sure if that's a similar gunwale to mine. Came out great. I have a solid track bolted onto my boat one both sides for riggers and use the removable mounts for extra rod holders. Call them direct as they can customize. Might take a while and won't be cheap, def worth it.

Dave,

 

If your factory mounting tracks are vertical, like my Crestliner, I found these on Walmart.com. Best price anywhere.
