I'm changing boat carpet and I have a rare chance to sort of redesign my setup,
So how do you store your really long rods? I'm getting 14' rods for Christmas.
Do you break them down?
Or
Do you have the long rod holders that leave them full length? Are they in the way at the docks?
Thanks
My 14'ers lay on top of the rod box and the live well. There are two vercro rod holder straps that keep them secure. Underneath those straps are 6 other rods ranging from 8' to 12' long. My boat is almost 17' long so they fit just fine. I dont break down rods. Takes too long.
I added the driftmaster tip savers to my older boat about a year ago and love em. Really makes a difference with staying organized and reducing clutter. I mounted mine offset, on custom made stanchions to raise them above the gunwales. This way I no longer have to break them down. There's some pics of some setups in the mechanic's corner of this forum to give you some ideas.
