LTL rod holders

Got a buddy back home who is lookign for some holders that will work on his boat. He has a stick steer boat similar to a bass tracker, I think its actually called a Lunda or something. Anyway Im like most on here and have tried several diff kinds or rod holders and will only endorse the LTL that Rusty and PAt sell. I guess my question is, for those of you with ss boats, do you use this kind and if so how/where do you mount them.

Stick steering or console, those rod holders are the best I have ever used. The location on mounting just depends on how the boat is laid out. Jabbo may have more suggestions on mounting location. He just redone his SS boat and did a remarkable job!!

I have a SS tracker panfish but I use the driftmaster rod holders which is basically the same thing just looks a little different. My tracker has side bodies on the inside and in the front I have them mounted on top of those side bodies. If he doesn't have any side bodies... not sure what you can do. Rusty can probably have some made with taller main poles so he could mount them in the floor and still make it up over the side the boat. Just really depends on what he has in there to mount to.

Rusty makes them in 3 different heights...I am sure he could "special make" some to any height.

I am selling my 4 driftmasters so that I can install Rustys. I need the avaialability to positin the holded 360 degress. My problem with dirtmaster is that I can only change for one to 3 different positons (forward).

I will be putting them up for sale next week.

If I am not mistaken, Rusty had one he made for someone that was not a Tbar, but a side rail. I have seen a couple of other special orders that he made and I am sure he can make one for your needs.

I did talk with Rusty this past weekend about his rod holders and he can make special them to whatever needs you have.
