    Default Ingenuity at work


    My crappie buddy an I got tired of taking thirty minutes to untangle our lines every time we fished or moved to a new spot. We spent the last few days brain storming, looking at pictures, and planning. We built a set for his boat and mine and they seem very stable and have enough room for guests to bring their rods and have a few spots for jig rods as well. Tomorrow morning, 5/12/14, they're gonna be put to the test. I'm open for sugestions and opinions.

    Looks good. It hurt my soul to take a bandsaw to a brand new pair of HiTek uprights to build mine.

    Looks good. Did you use bolts to seperate the rods? I'd be worried that the threads might rub the rods pretty bad from bouncing around if so. Nothing a little heat shrink or plasti-dip couldn't solve, though.

    We used rubber tubing to cover the threads and nylock stainless steel nuts and bolts.
