New Taco® Marine Carbon Fiber Outrigger Poles Win 2016 Miami International Boat Show Innovation Award
MIAMI, FLORIDA (USA) – The new Taco® Marine Carbon Fiber Outrigger Poles won the Product Innovation Award in the Fishing Equipment, Gear & Tackle category at the 2016 Progressive® Miami International Boat Show. The award was presented during the annual Industry Breakfast prior to the opening of the show last Thursday at the Miami Marine Stadium Park & Basin.
Taco Marine Carbon Fiber Outrigger Poles are stronger and lighter than any aluminum poles on the market.
The cylindrical design has the strength built into it to allow for today’s modern fishing techniques of pulling small dredges of ballyhoo, mullet or squids through the water at higher speeds that would be difficult to achieve with aluminum poles.
A patent pending, swivel roller mechanism allows for live baits or artificial lures to have a more natural swimming action, which will result in hooking up more fish. The Tele-Outrigger version (shown above) telescopes to less than 8′ for bridge clearance, trailering and storage and is sold in pairs, with two models (16 feet with double rollers and 20 feet with triple rollers) available for boats up to 50 feet.
