IF POSSIBLE FOR MANY OF YOU HOBBY HORSES, be serious for a minute and help a rootin , tootin, Commie Shootin Marine out.
I'd like information on your trolling setup far as the back of the boat is concerned.
What are you using?
I'm going to troll 6 rods
Ok
Hobby horses, jump in
I troll 14 out the back. Here is my set up for my Jon boat. I will post a pic of my center console as well.

Here is my center console. I troll exclusively out of the back since I have the cooler seat.

Thanks
Who makes those rod holders?
Which ones? The ones on my jon boat I made the t bars and rod holders. The one on the center consoles I made the t bars and my wife's cousin made the stainless rod holders.
Brett, spread your 6 rods out as far as you can to cover more water. I too fish 14 rods. If I fish by myself I fish from the back of the boat but if anybody comes along I keep it simple with 6 off the front and 6 out the back. Since this picture I have added two more holders in the back. When fishing two people I move my front T-bars to the sides of the boat up front of the steering wheel.Attachment 222908

These are what we use tite-lok's they are versatile with extra mounting bases you can move them all over the boat. if your interested Grizzly has the best price and they make a 3 rod holder also I think. I can get you more pictures if you're interested.

I bought my boat already rigged.... But it is setup much like snap hunter's aluminum boat, I have 8 out the back and 2 out each side
Mark Danque at the crappie hole in Chapin did the setup.
Here ya o Brett.Heres a 6 rod set-up out the back for trolling (or cut bait/bottom fishing)..I made it from a piece of three inch channel. Easy to make and affordable. Ive made a few of these over the years for other boats.My fishing partner has his like this except it is made from round stock...I got lucky and found some at the scrapyard(channel) and didnt have much in it.I think your boat has a raised deck at the back,,you'd have to raise a set up like this about 16 inches to make it easy to reach your rods
