Overview
The Garmin 010-13404-50 is a dogbone stabilizer for the Garmin Spy Pole mount, used to brace the Spy Pole to Garmin Force and Force Pro trolling motors. It adds a second support point between the trolling motor shaft and the Spy Pole while still allowing independent pole rotation and shaft height adjustment.
This stabilizer is especially relevant for anglers running a heavier Spy Pole setup, including installations with two transducers on the pole. In that dual-transducer layout, the stabilizer is required to help control movement and keep the pole assembly better supported while the boat is moving, fishing, or being handled around the dock.
Key features
- Braces the Spy Pole mount to Garmin Force and Force Pro trolling motors for added support at the trolling motor shaft.
- Allows the Spy Pole to keep its independent rotation, so the pole can still be aimed without turning the trolling motor.
- Maintains shaft height adjustment, which helps fine-tune transducer position for forward-facing sonar use.
- Required when two transducers are installed on the Spy Pole.
- Useful for fishing boats with LiveScope-style transducer setups where pole stability matters during casting, scanning, and repositioning.
Installation and fit
This part is made for Spy Pole installations on Garmin Force and Force Pro trolling motors. It connects the Spy Pole assembly back to the trolling motor shaft, giving the pole another bracing point without taking away the normal pole adjustments used on the water.
Fit should be checked against the trolling motor and Spy Pole layout before installation, especially when adding a second transducer or changing an existing shaft-mounted setup. Proper alignment matters because the stabilizer needs to support the pole while leaving rotation and height movement free.
Use cases on board
This stabilizer is a good match for freshwater and inshore fishing boats using a Spy Pole with Garmin trolling motor systems. It is most useful where forward-facing sonar equipment is mounted on the pole and the setup needs extra support during frequent scanning, trolling motor steering, and deck-level handling.
