    Ultimate Peir Cart

    Ok everyone, so most have seen my pier cart and know I go a little over the top. Well I am thinking of building a new one. While most would be satisfied with the simple off the shelf carts, I like to stand out and be prepared for any and everything. The new cart will be completely custom from the ground up. I have a general idea of what I want, but would like to hear your ideas of what you think the ultimate peir cart would look like and what features it would have (i.e. bait tank(s), tackle storage, cooler, self propelled). Please be realistic and detailed.

    Need a way to keep your LY catching red ribbon rig, from getting tangled up in the other rods, while pushing it and when windy, and in between usages, and a simple way to LOCK in the Rod and reels to keep someone from taking them, or a alarm.

    The whole purpose of the cart was the bait bucket. It becomes a pain in the butt pulling the bait bucket up and and letting it back down when the kings are chewing the pier down.
