You have a similar rear deck to my Aluminum Triton. I had a homemade catfish rack on the back of my boat when I bought it that I tried to troll from without a lot of success. Rod tips too high and too much line out of the water between the rod tip and the entry point to the water-it skewed my dive curves. Precision Trolling data is published as line submerged in the water. The lures rose even higher when you factor in the effect that wind had on all of that mono blowing around in the breeze between the boat and water.I took it off and created a quick way to attach it to the gunnel track system if I want to anchor up for catfish in the future.

I then purchased two rod holder t-bars and bases from Scott at HiTek Stuff with 9" risers to mount on my track. I tried something new last year and moved my rods forward of my console so that I can work within the open floor of the boat without having to climb up and down the casting deck since I fish by myself a lot. I can now see my rods while sitting on my bench seat looking forward. I adjust my rods so that the tips of all 6-8 rods are 4-6" off of the water and that puts the line entry point for my three outboard rods about even with each other just behind the stern of the boat. If the point of entry moves father behind the boat I know that I'm either towing a tiny fish or my crank is fouled and is riding too high in the water column.

The extra mount on the forward deck was used for a pushing rod that has been replaced with another track mount t-bar from HiTek to clean the deck up.
