Thread: Rod Stowage......

Ya'll got any pics for ideas on the way to make something that can be easily mounted AND moved to hold rods on the side rail while either moving from one hole to the other but can also be used while going down the road as well. I have a idea of what I want to do as far as the holder, but want some ideas to be least invasive on drilling a lotta holes to mount it.....Hope I explained what I am thinking.......lol

Any help on this is appreciated.

Thanks in advance



This is what im working with

They stretch out where you can put your hooks on leaders through them, and/or a weight dangling at the end, another jig higher up the rod..what have ya! Keeps them all in a nice neat package. It takes a few seconds to undo them to fish, but not nearly as long as un knotting 4# test from 4 different rods, that you almost can't see! For me it really helps prevent tangled lines.

Yep there was a man over in Louisiana where I fish some showed me that last spring. He would be putting up eight rods with 3 hooks each and worked great. What he was actually using was the bands that lil girls use to hold pony tails. Picked up several packs at Wally World for like $3.
