    Sounds like a lot of fun. I need to check out that Lake Jocossee.

    I'll try to get a better pic but here you can see the risers. They are fantastic for cold weather fishing simply because I can fit my big boots under them without having to break my ankle. Also put my rods at the right height and the depth finder right in reach. Thanks for the great idea!

    It is nice to be able to move your feet around and also to have everything up to the height that makes the rods more user friendly. Your risers look good

    Nice work on all the yaks. Makes my mouth water for a yak of my own. This next summer will bring one my way. I am looking at building my own.

    I'd be interested in seeing that setup too. Would also like to have an idea on the price ~ you never know.

    I can't put a price on this forum but I do have a set on my site for sale, check them out there and here is a pic of them. Weight is 1 lb 12 0z.

    I ordered a set and will say it was a pleasure doing business with Stump Hunter. I can't wait to try them out as soon as I get back!

    Here's my Aluminum version. Kept everything simple with 90 degree joints for my first try. I tapped the top holes with 1/4 20 so I can put the original dashboard bolts in without having to use the lock nuts. Now with a screwdriver I can adjust everything.

    Add a pair of scissor hinges between the uprights and the dashboard. You can pull it closer when you need it in place; and fold it away from you to get in and out or move around.
