If this is the case, a new Yeti would be the ticket to throw your fish in and boost your Crappie Cred.

A tip of the day for you is to fish on the opposite end of the lake from where your house is. Say hi to in in-laws as you go by. Call Meatgetter he can fix you up with some good stuff.

uh oh. you've got me at a disadvantage now. know my house and my family! heck probably know the muddy creek those muddy fish came out of too lol

Psshhhh..... Mugs will let anybody up in here....looks more like a Waco to me....stick to bank fishing would be my advice, but if you decide not to, hi-techs are what up....sbyl

I fish out of a 1546 Xpress. I took a gas pipe and made a T out of it, attached a floor flange to the front floor, and threaded a few DriftMaster holders onto the pipe, and there you go, a 6 rod holder for under $100.

This is the 1st version of my idea, but it shows all the important parts. Now has a longer upright, and longer arms, and 2 more holders on each arm. It is also mounted just in front of the storage compartment in the floor.

I think im about to do the same and build my own rod holders. Im going to use some old bow sight brackets for the bases. That way I can remove them. I'll have under $100 in material for two holders that will hold 6 rods each.
Shifty, what is the top speed of your dad's edge on a lake? I seen a pic of it on another forum. I have the same exact boat. 556 w a 50hp tohatsu and break away plate. I need to know if I'm in the ballpark. How high is his cavitation plate? Thanks.
