[QUOTE="Lowrider1, post: 487058, member: 17989"] OK...not giving up on pods yet but I bought a 5 hp Tahatsu propane motor and will use a 11 pound tank and cut my weight (and speed) in half but lost the need for trolling motor and battery. Got it too late to splash the boat due to cold weather. Yeah I'm a cold weather woose. 35 years ago I used to fish king Salmon in Cook Inlet in snow storms...now I know better. Ice fishing is a different duck. Anyway, I still am concerned about stability while standing to fly fish and pods seem to still provide a decrease in "tippyness". Currently rebuilding a 1974 Honda CT 90 and it's been real close to zero for a week or two and my shop is heated. Almost time to think about fishing again. Given weight reductions and leaving both dogs and maybe the bride at home I still would like to have more stability. Any other thoughts?? [/QUOTE]
