    Talking Ideas for rigging my bass boat for crappie!!


    I have an 87 Ranger 373V that I love dearly. I have extended the deck and such...fixing to rig up for crappie. I'm going to build some two, three, and four rod T-brace holders out of gas pipe and square tubing. I would like to see some actually crappie rigs and bass/crappie rigs...just for ideas. I took Jerry and Darryls boats and picked them apart in my mind and will be posting pics of the crappie/bass Ranger transformation when I start. Just looking for more ideas and such...I'm excited about this....anyone that knows me will tell you I can't ever leave well enough alone...lol. Thanks alot and I look forward to seeing pics and hearing ideas!! :D

    Peel off the Ranger stickers and put on the Tracker stickers, then anything goes.

    To make it into a crappie rig you just need to get some and slime it up a little.
    Good things come to those who bait.

    Look at the new Tite-Lok pro series holders. I have four sets of them on my Ranger.

    I made a holder that looks very similar to a driftmaster out of some all-thread and some electrical conduit.

    These folks have some good ideas, especially if you don't want to make holes.

    Default Don't Mess Up That Boat

    You can mount any rod holders you want without drilling any holes in that rig with our bases. Better yet get the bases, T-Bars and Rod Holdes as packaged units. Check out my website Extreme Fishing Concepts Driftmaster rod holders , Santee rod holders , Joy Fish cast nets and Redi Rig Floats and look at the way we outfit bass boats. The best thing is these are easily installed and easily removed without leaving any marks. If you want to sell the boat later no one will ever know they were on there. You can also remove them and use them on a friend's boat. Check us out.
