Thread: No drillin holes for these!!!

I'd have to drilll holes to put the rail on. Also, seems like a bit of bending down to get to them. But I hope they work out great for you.

I use the universal clamp base for my crank pullin holders. My boat has a rounded cap on the top of the gunnel and the universal clamps work perfectly with no drilling. My front casting deck does not extend all the way back to the console so I am down in the boat when pulling cranks instead of up on the casting deck where I would really have to bend down to get to them.

My boat has no casting deck. Seats are down in the floor and rail is just below knee. Rod holder is about knee level.

Man that looks like an awesome setup, the poles will be right there by your seats. We have to jump up to get to them in my boat, lol. Why do some of those holders have wingnuts and the other have regular nuts? I would go with the regular nuts on all of them, torque them where you want them once on the water and be done with it. My wingnuts sometime work lose on my drift master T bar holders. Hopefully, I will be upgrading before this fall.

Not sure about the reason on the wing nuts. Three are left hand threads and three are right hand threads. Just what they had at the factory I guess.

10-4 I gotcha you, may wanna put the wingnuts on the torquing side of the boat. Where when the poles bend they ain't trying to loosen them, I dunno wingnuts don't work well for me I reckon

I use these on my Driftmasters....3/8 on the single rod holders and 1/2 inch on the T-bars. Lowes usually has them, less than 2 bucks each. Easier to tighten than a wing nut and holds better but can be loosened by hand/
