Nose-cone for towfish?
« on: February 23, 2010, 10:05:08 AM »
For those of you that have built towfish, what did you use for a nose-cone? I am looking for an aluminum or plastic one that fits 2" PVC pipe. Any ideas?

I just used a rounded 2" PVC cap.  Works great! Simple, cost efficient!

Yea, I know. Didn't see that topic covered very well.

That looks to be the leading candidate right now. Was looking for something a little more streamlined if possible, but can't argue with success. Thanks!
