[QUOTE="eeshaw, post: 487160, member: 25150"] When I first started bow fishing I had a 1436. I built and put pods on the rear of it and they worked well. The boat used a 9.9 Mercury 4 stroke also with a electric troller up front. The battery was mounted in the front bench. I then passed the boat on to my step son and he and his buddies used it to run ditty lines for flatheads. They loved it. You "maybe" able to use pods on the rear of your boat but they really wouldn't give you the stability you want. They'd increase your load capability and would let it plane ok though. For what you want I'd lean towards the side sponsons and I'd use the irrigation tube, it'll hold up to the rocks better. [/QUOTE]
