re: Casting platform height

I've been obsessed with sight fishing for years and can say that height of your platform is not a determining factor in spooking reds, in Louisiana at least. The amount of fishing pressure in the area and noise you make are more of a big deal... and shadows, never allow your shadow to cross a fish.
I don't do much buggy whipping, or take many that do, but for using slaysticks, i love my double tiered platform with the top height at 48 inches and bottom at 22 inches. You need a leaning post in front or back at that top height.
The double tier and rear leaning bar allows me to fish three on the tower with 2 up top and 1 on the lower tier. Great when taking kids and teaching them the craft.
Remote trolling motors are a must
