The front to back separation helps keep things in order, and it's way cool, and a bit crazy, when you troll thru a school and the 8's go down, and a few seconds later, the 10's go and then the 12's. and you're by yourself. Fished 3 hours tonight, caught about 40 or more til the sun went behind the trees and then it was over like someone threw a switch. 10 or 11 would have been dinner but the live well stayed dry this trip. Several times I had fish on 2 or more rods. Didn't have time to reset the rods, just unhook fish and set them in the holders til I answered all the downed rods, then reset them all. I had a stinking BALL!!!
Bet that was a Chinese fire drill, fun but hectic.
GO BIG ORANGE !
I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.
