dk239 Posted November 20, 2006 Posted November 20, 2006 Is anyone making rod holders to go in the rod box for older boats? Quote
Super User Way2slow Posted November 20, 2006 Super User Posted November 20, 2006 Make sure what ever you use, it protects the rods all the way to the tips so the tips are not allowed to come together when inserted in the rod holder. If you can't go all the way to the tip you will need some type of sleeve to slide over the rods before putting them in the rod holder. You can buy a whole bunch of sleeves for what one good rod is going to cost the first time the tips get tangled together and breaks one or two off. The plastic tubes they use in golf bags are popular for making rod holders but they are normally not long enough to protect the tips do get the sleeves for the rods if you use those. Quote
Super User cart7t Posted November 21, 2006 Super User Posted November 21, 2006 I've read more and more posts about guys getting away from the rod holders, like the golf club tubes and going with the sleeves. Our mod here, Fivebasslimit sells some pretty cheap, about half the price of the ones you can buy. I can put the sleeves on my rods and literally cram my rod box full of rods and still be able to reach down to the bottom and pull one out without it entangled with the others. they're a much better deal IMO.
