So I like to stage rods in front of me, laying down. I do have
rod holders (PVC) behind me that can hold a number. Usually
the three or four rods with various favored baits on them.
I do like shorter rods, so that's something to consider. I ride
a 12' Native Ultimate anything over 6'6" hangs off too far and
when the wind kicks up and I'm close to cover...ugh.
