Running riggers in tracks

What’s your thoughts on running riggers in tracks. I currently have them mounted to gunnel but thought about putting them in my cannon tracks

The tracks are fine. All 3 of mine are in track. I wouldn't do it if you dont through bolt it with fender washers or a backing plate. My fishmaster came with track from the factory and just had screws going int plywood under the aluminum of the gunnel. I replaced them all with though bolts and fender washers in any area that would have any kind of weight in the track.

Fat trout I think I will leave well enough alone then. I don’t think I can get under gunnels enough to thru bolt mine

yeah the only safe way to mount them on tracks is to bolt the tracks on with backing plates or at least fender washers. i have run riggers on my tracks one time. but i tied the riggers to the boat.
