Meet the TACO GS-500 Grand Slam Outrigger Mounts—the pinnacle base for hardcore offshore sport fishing. Designed to handle demanding spreads, these mounts accept CF-HD Poles only and pair exclusively with our Carbon Fiber Tele-Outriggers up to 24' long for a clean, powerful fishing platform.
Engineered for deck-level control, the GS-500 lets you adjust lift and rotation of your outrigger poles from the safety of the cockpit. The patent-pending Twist & Lock pole connection delivers a secure, pin-free connection every time, while the rugged construction combines cast stainless steel and machined aluminum for a base that stands up to salt, sun, and heavy use.
