I made a rack for mine as well and went the bungee route. Works fine rollin down the interstate however fast that may be haha. Especially with 12ft rods. My 16s can get some tip bounce if they aren’t positioned right
I have read and looked at hundreds of pictures and reversed engineered a 6 pole holder that will fit in my track system. I have it offset to the side similar to what Drift master sells.
I am using 12' Southern Crappie rods
I am wondering what you guys use to hold them down, do you go out and buy a bungie cord or is there a better mouse trap out there.
Also how comfortable are you running down the road at 65 mph with poles hanging out the side of your boat.
Or do you store poles in boat and then use rigs to hold poles when inside boat.
thanks for any info and help

Very nice
If you got southern crappie rods it don't matter much. I had a home made transport rack and 4 14' southerns. Left lake one day bungeed rods in rack with reels to front. Drove approx 90 miles home. When I turned into driveway, I noticed something behind boat. My front rack, with reel end of rods still tied in had broken off the boat. The rod tips were still tied in the rear rack. The rods were bent back to about a 45* to boat. Don't know how far I had drug them down highway. Only damage was, the rod handles are about 1" shorter. Tough rods!!
