I'm gonna have the i-pilot fob for the trolling motor around my neck, so I figure a foot pedal forward and another on the front corner of the poling platform will work instead of trying to carry two fobs.<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>I also read on the PowerPole website that if you're a right handed caster put the power pole on the starboard side, port side for southpaws... something about back casts when you park the boat in higher winds. and the boat starts to park partly sideways on the pole. Maybe it's for fly-fishing, I can't "see" any difference in my puny brain???<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Jim
