    Default I'm lookin for the Guy


    In the Memphis area that custom builds the transport racks for his friends. I've seen em at Butla on his boat, and another younger guy he made one for. Anybody know him? He came to the Butla FJ two years ago. Not sure if he fished it or not. They have alinumnum tuning with SS V's coming out of it. They are compact, and they don't stick out over the side of the boat. They look kinda like this--
    Ain't no artist, but this is as close as I can get.

    Hasn't been in the water in a while. The old shop building I store it in is pretty dusty. Gonna get my other knee done this fall, so I need to put the boat to work pretty soon.

    I plagiarized that rod holder from the one you had. Of course, yours was a lot fancier than mine.

    The one I saw from the guy in Memphis is like your rear rack Mike, only his were v'ed at about a 45 degree angle instead of straight out.

    Mine are v'ed on the back, but straight in the middle. I use elastic cord to hold them in place.
