    Stay with the driftmaster T-Bar system. It's the best there is and it's infinitely adjustable. Can't beat it no way no how!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have only seen pictures of the New Driftmasters. They came out right after I bought my Tite-Lok Ultra Supremes. They certainly look quality. They are heavy duty that's for sure. The Tite-Lok Ultra Supremes are adjustable with the fingers from the base including the 360 swing and pitch of the rod holder. No allen wrenches needed. It may tie a Tite-Lok Ultra Supreme, it will in no ways beat it cause in my opinion it is near flawless in design. The base is adjustable in a couple of seconds with your finger you can go right at 45 degrees either way with the whole rod holder with just the oval base alone and the rod holder has 11 pivot points to spread the tips whereever you want it in seconds by finger and also the pitch of you rod tip from the water in seconds by finger. Plus you can move to another place on the boat in 20 seconds by finger. NO WRENCHES that is the beauty of Tite-Lok. Often imitated but never duplicated. I will say this the Tite-Loks are pricey, but again worth it!

    Long rods and lift straight up.. Also you use a longer handle net to reach out there and get em. Don't lift a B&M jigpole like that or it WILL break the tip. I have broke a few but won't anymore..:D I use enough weight to keep my lines almost verticle. I use a 13', 2-twelve foot, and a 10' on each holder.
    If you have sonar up front most of the time you can see your baits on the graph.
    this method works best the longer the rods..IMO.. they make 20',18',16',14',13',12',10' and regular rods.
    If you use shorter rods angle them right of left of the trolling motor.

    I have talked to him and he is going to custom make me some holders for the very front of my boat for pushing.
    I just need to find the time to take my boat to him. he does outstanding work.

    I can get the Driftmaster Tbar (flat bar) kit from Sports Center in Perry for $17.99 each (fits 4 rod holders per bar). I already have the rod holders to screw into the flat bar. I am going to move the other 4 (differnt kind) from the front to the back with the other 4 (not sure of the make cause they came with the boat). Then I'll be fishing 8 rods up front and 8 in the back (for now!). For $36, I gotta try it! Those 0 degree angle rod holders are running from 11.99-13.99 each. You can find some Attwoods just like the Driftmasters at Walmart some times for a dollar or more cheaper. The Sports Center also had the Flat bar with the rod holders for $69.99 and the other nicer Tbar set for about $89.99 with the rod holders. Still not a bad deal if you had to have the rod holders too. Thanks a lot for all your input on this subject......we'll talk about it some more after I get to use them some and figure out the good/bad or what ever....Thanks again
