TM Shaft Length

It depends on what kind of water you fish…Here in Michigan most guys run 52″ shafts and pull them up some when fishing shallow water. The longer shaft makes all of the difference in in the world in Rollers…I have a MK Maxxum Pro on a Jag with a 52″ shaft and love it..

The shafts on the new FourTrex models are 45″ now and not 42″ as they were previously. They should be more user friendly now and versatile.

I just mounted a 52″ MK 101 Maxxum Pro on my 08 Puma from a MG 109 and the 4 holes lines up perfectly. Had to modify the plastic of the mount a little and use the isolators because of the lip on the top cap of the Puma. Have to watch where you lay your rods and the rod box will only open a little with the motor in the stowed position. But I had the same problem fishing main lake, blow out. Hope this helps.

45″ which is fine for most areas. The open water anglers might go to a 50″ on the Great Lakes, though not the reservoir and river anglers. BCB does very few 50″ shafts and they interfere with the storage boxes as the head protrudes to the rear.Last edited by Bass Cat Boats on February 23rd, 2009, 2:11 pm, edited 1 time in total.
