Practical use cases and setup tips

• If you’re planning deep‑water trolling for marlin or tuna, the 3.6m length provides optimal spread to keep lines away from the hull and reduce tangles, especially at higher speeds.
• Mount these on a walk‑around hardtop or T‑top setup to maximize deck space and provide a clean, secure platform for your rigging hardware.
• Position the outriggers for preferred lure separation and angle; use the Wing‑nut bolt to quickly remove the poles when returning to dock or cruising through shallow waters.
• Combine with appropriate rigging kits and release clips to tailor the system to your boat’s size, weight, and target species.

For anglers seeking reliable, NZ‑built outriggers that balance rugged construction with practical, field‑tested usability, Kilwell NZ Outriggers 3.6m Stiff Bolt-On Black (pair) offer a proven path to cleaner, more efficient trolling and better big‑game opportunities on the water.
