Rod Holder Ideas For A Kayak
Hi All. I'm posting in this forum to try and get as many eyeballs as I can, but if the Mods want to move it to Kayaks I understand. I am in the process of resurrecting my Mini-X for stream and small lake fishing, and I never got any rod holders the first time around. My concern is damage to my high end rod(s). The kayak is only 9 1/2 ft, and my new little Luna is 6'3". A center mounted Scotty would be really nice, but if I ever jammed it I would be very PO'd. I was thinking maybe a side mount pointed toward the stern would give me the best chance of protecting the fine rod tip. I know AlphaHawk had a kayak at one time, and he and others had this issue to deal with. I'm looking for experienced suggestions for how to set up the kayak. I would of course start my first trip with a cheaper rod to see how things are working.
Thanks in advance,
Bob
