A good Crappie man never lets monsoon season stop him for long. WTG!

Question for you: We're trying to rig my 17' Tracker with something akin to a spider rig on the front & rear decks for side drifting &/or trolling. Looked @ what Cabela's & BP have to offer. Wondering if you might have a homemade solution.

I used wall plates (a plumbing part we use at work) screwed to the gunnels with stainless all thread and a stainless rod coupling to one of rod holders they sell at wallmart.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, I forgot about MD's limit of 3 active rods per angler, so I just picked up four clamp-on holders; each of us can use two holders and hold the third rod, or lay it on the deck under a foot.
