I was thinking about visability issue and that was the reason for going on the port side.

I wanted one of these things for a while to troll with hoping I can get some lures down deep and pretty much know what depth is and once a fish hits its just you and the fish, but never really thought about where to put it until now.

Spoke to Skip before I won the auction for his advise, but haven't had the chance to speak to him since and was just looking for some input.

On the angle part, I know Skip's are on swivel mounts, mine is not. Once I pick an angle that is where is gonna stay, so I need to make the right choice.

Was hoping to get some input from others who may have one on how far forward from the stern you can go and not worry about tangling in the motor on turns and what angle works. Won't really need it for a while so I have some time before I mount it.
