    Great question! I am interested in seeing responses. I haven't really made anything, But I do have eight duck blind brackets that I mounted Scotty rod holders on (kayak version/small bait cast model). This gives me a very adaptable system that allows me to easily move/adjust rods 360 degrees around the boat. This is in addition to my one spider rig setup on the bow.

    funny that this popped up, here in the last week or 2 i have been making some brackets and what not for mine. so far ive got 6 rod holders done, a gps bracket for ram mount, and a bracket for my graph up front. this way i can change, move or remove any of this at the drop of a hat. reason i made the rod holders, i dont "strictly" spider rig, and am liable to be bass fishing a bank and move to jigging then trolling etc and didnt want full blown spider rigs that would have my boat all jacked up all the time. testing is starting as soon as tomorrow and will last all spring and summer. didnt think of making a beer holder, ill put that on the list.

    I'll take some pictures this weekend to post. I really like the war eagle rail cap system.

    I also forgot that I used different rail cap bracket from war eagle and put a RAM mount and HB quick mount on it for my HB 798. I have it positioned so I can use it when I drive the boat, and rotate it when I move to the front to fish. I have the same RAM mount set up on my Triton too which allows me to hot swap the head between boats.

    Tommy,

    That looks perfect! What length WE is that on, and do you have any issues with opening the gun box? I'm thinking a six rod holder for my use. Looks like I am going to be talking with Scott soon.
