This is a tale of two lakes. Intertwined lakes, in Barry County, Michigan. Where somehow the water has gone away. Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes, both near and dear to me, are suffering from the lowest water levels I've seen in the 35+ years I've been fishing them.

T-Motor Stabilizer

Hello all,

I have been looking for a way to stabilize my T-motor a little better than it currently is.
As of right now I have Mk fortrex with the strap that comes with it along with a plastic bounce buster however I noticed no matter how I adjust these 2 things anytime I get on lake erie or in rough water in general it has more play that it should and can be scary.

I have seen people run u bolts into their decks and run bungee cords around the tmotor to stabilize it and I have heard this works pretty good however my rod lock is not big enough to be able to access the spot to be able to run a ubolt but I did just see a product made by RMC Boat Locks called the Troll-Lock I believe really it is basically a really nice looking upgrade to a bounce buster and looks like it could be very good for rough water situations and I was hoping maybe someone of you guys maybe had tried this product out or had any suggestions at all for dealing with this issue.

Thanks for any thoughts.

While I don't have the fortrex, i have the Maxxum

I use the strap and i have a ram mount towards the top
It's rock solid
