Galvanised Steel Fishing Tripod Trigg Island W.A.
The footing/spike is made of steel and welded and galvanised.
The seat is marine ply. I prefer the round shape for ease of getting on and off. The rod holder is up high compared with the aluminium tripod. I hang an army kit bag from hooks on the legs to take my fish.
The steel tripod is heavier than the aluminium one and is starting to rust
Galvanised steel tripod. Trigg Island W.A. 17/08/2012.
This is my galvanised tripod. I have owned it for 11 years and used it exclusively during this period.
The crossbar is hinged and secured with a bolt.

I bought this tripod out of The Quokka for $40 in 2001. It was brand new, just back from the galvanisers and unassembled. The name Keith Fleming was written on it in black texta.
