Pro seat with back support

Featured Replies

Does anyone have a non traditioal pro seat in the front of their boat?

I'm looking for something a bit more comfortable.

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance.

I've been wondering the same thing. I am going fishing in the morning and as I was getting the boat ready today, I decided to try one of the regular folding seats in place of the "butt" seat I normally use. I just replaced the seat, not the adjustable post. It works OK in the driveway. :-? I will report back tomorrow. As I get older the Pro seat doesn't work as good as it once did. ::D

Just returned from the local power plant cooling lake (caught 4 between 17" and 18 1/4" 8-)) The regular seat worked great. In the lower position I could sit comfortably and still be high enough to easily operate the TM. Adjust the post up a bit and I could sit/lean on the front of the seat much like the butt seat. It is not the sportiest looking, but my back doesn't mind. 

Everybody used bow seats years ago. After using pro-poles for the last 20 years or so, I've found myself swapping the pro-pole with a fold-down seat off and on throughout the day more and more often in recent years.

Like many people my lower back simply does not like me to stand up for 8 hours a day any more. As mentioned a gas adjustable seat makes a regular seat more comfortable, allowing you to raise it up, drop it down, etc. In my current project boat (Ranger 373v) I'm considering sticking to a fold-down on the bow and not even using a pro-pole up front (there's one there but the pneumatics no longer work.)
