I thought I would start a thread with some pole pictures. Feedback appreciated.

Where is the one with the bend in the middle?

Wow,
Cool cool pictures. I suppose you took them with a Nikon Cool Pix.

Katlian,
What pray tell are you referring to? Are you suggesting I have a bent pole?

[Salty]

I don't think it is this one.

These don't look bent but are definitely not bow poles.

Wow,
Cool pictures. Often I try to leave the lines out but then sometimes the lines add a lot. I love the one with the blocks. Been doing a bit of rigging lately.

What happens when your not paying attention around the rockpile!
Please, nobody bother posting that I should have a line tied inside the spring to keep it from stretching out passed a certain point. It may be a good idea on some boats, but not ones the size of mine. I don't want that kind of leverage on the end of my pole, 8 dollar springs are easily replaced.
