Looks great! Just curious as to why you went with the S-shaft design and not a straight shaft of some nature.

Good luck with it, Jim

I may try a straight shaft at some point but there are some points in favor of this S shaft. First its lighter than any straight shaft. Your hand will block the screen on a straight shaft. And I may not be able to position the control box as far back e.g. the balance may not be as good. For hip/chest deep wading though I think a straight shaft might be the way to go.

Charles,

Really like the mods. Could you elaborate on your probe and how it was constructed. I was interested in the black cap at the sensor end as to what it was or if you milled it to fit.

Thanks,

VERY NICE MOD

This is the one of the all times best water mods ever.
