Oh it not criticism!! That's my next purchase to be made. Just got electronics installed yesterday. Hoping I can find good deal on a used trolling motor soon.

Keep an eye on the classifieds here. They don’t come every day but there are often some of the best deals you’ll find on used gear.

Pappy - where did you find the cupholders mounted to your rod holders? I've been looking for something to hold all the crappie nibbles and misc junk rolling around on my front deck. Nice set-up BTW

Thanks,
DB

Actually ... one came with the holders that I bought from another member off the Personal Classifieds, and the other I purchased at a local tackle shop. They are called Roger's Handie Hold-it Supply Caddy : Invalid URL (click on it, the link is fine)


The base is screwed into the square upright bar of the T (on mine) and the caddy just slides down onto the base. But, they can also be used on a round pole, as they have openings in the base for use with band clamps.

The "cup holder" portions are two different sizes ...right side holder has 2.5" diameter & is basically made for a 12oz can or 16oz plastic bottle of water or pop (depending on how far down the pole you mount it). The left side holder is smaller, and basically made for holding the smaller bottles of scent (2" diameter).
There are 4 loops on the outer rims of the cup holder, suitable for hanging a jig or crank in ... and two slots on the front that will hold a pair of needlenose pliers and a small socket wrench. (I don't use them for those things, because they are subject to being bounced out of the holder in rough water travel)

For what it's worth ... the Coke can in my picture is not alone in the holder. There's something underneath it, which is why it's sitting so high up in the holder. The holders are actually 3.5" deep.

The link to BPS, showing the holder & price, is only for identifying purposes ... as you can find them cheaper. But the BPS price is about what I paid for the one I bought from the tackle store.
