Title: Marcum Recon 5 stand?
Post by: NESDperchslayer on Nov 02, 2017, 02:03 PM

I just bought a Marcum Recon 5.  I will be using it for run and gun situations to look at bottom structure.  My question is for when I decide to hunker down in the shack what has everybody done to make a stand for their Marcum recons to keep them off the ice?  Also what do you guys use for the chord to position it in the hole?

there are a few camera panners available. marcum and aqua-vu make them.

stands, i think folks use ram mounts.

This is what I use in my Otter to keep things and it off the ground. Nice thing is that I can position it anywhere I want it with the C-clamp attachment.
