Which Outrigger Pole is Best? Carbon Fiber or Aluminum?

The best outrigger poles are carbon fiber because they are much stronger and lighter than any aluminum pole on the market today. Why does that matter? At TACO Marine, our carbon fiber outrigger poles easily pull dredges of ballyhoo, mullet or squids through the water at high speeds, which is difficult to do with aluminum poles. Plus, only TACO carbon fiber outrigger poles have an innovative swivel roller design mechanism that pulls the bait into a more natural swimming action. What’s more, it’s easy to rig, telescopes to less than 8 feet and includes a nylon mesh carry bag to protect the poles.

This TACO Marine step-by-step video below shows you how to set up the outrigger cords, attach the swivels and pulleys, set the tension on the poles, install the outrigger cords to the gunnel as well as how and where to attach your fishing line.
