You will love it Mike. I'm in the same situation and went with one holder also. I love it. Thinking about making or buying some 2 Rod holders for each side of the rear so someone I bring with me can rig also
On our way to Truman Thursday JigfisherX and I made a quick stop at Everhart's. Jared got me set up with a rod holder to put on my Tracker Pro Crappie, a "minirigger" set up I call it. Not enough width on the front of the boat for two people. I figure 4 rods will be plenty to keep me busy.
I'll post a pic when I get it installed in a day or so. Looking forward to getting it in action.
I'll smoke just about anything (in my smoker)
The fishing is always great. The catching varies.

We rig out of the back of my boat and it works just fine. Just alternate sides of the boat so you're not fishing the same water
4 rods is plenty for us amateurs riggers.lol I am thinking about getting a couple of the rig set ups for the back also... I like the idea

Jared is good at getting me to spend money as well. Good luck with the setup! I only run 6 rods myself. Can't imagine 8...I stay busy enough with 6.
