    Trolling motor shaft mounted transducer- is there an extension made?

    I have the transducers on my TM shaft and don't care at all about using a sep shaft for the livescope. But, what I would like to do is to extend the transducer away from the shaft somehow so that it is past the barrel of the trolling motor and eliminate the 8 degree offset tilt. Has anyone seen anything being made to do this? I can think of a couple ways but just thought I'd check here before setting about making something.

    I am interested in this somewhat. What about a rubber grommet/spacer?

    My wife asks if I'm going to fish every day. I can't fish every day. Some days I might be sick.

    Following lure as it drops to different depths is better. Ghost tree is worse.
