Small boat pole storage?

[goat834]

Anyone have any ideas? I have a 14' jon boat and I am looking for a way to secure my poles during transport and fishing. Any thoughts or pics would be helpful.

I added this onto my boat and I have not been happier!!! They hold my rods during travel and they are easy to use!!!

I prefer the rod holders that hold the rods upright Like these:

I have the six rod holder and couldn't be happier with it. The rods are vertical so you do have to be mindful of casting side arm, but I just mounted mine dead center in the boat and they haven't gotten in the way yet.

Sorry it's a bad picture but you can see how I have them mounted, Good option if you have the room to mount.

I have the same straps that NitroMan uses in my bass boat.  They work great.  I keep my rods in them while fishing when I am moving to other areas.  Have also put rods in them when going down the road.

I installed a rod buckle onto the deck of my 16' aluminum jon boat, just like you see on the larger bass boats. Whether I'm running 15 mph down the lake   8-), or 70 mph down the highway, these have worked flawlessly. Quick, simple, and low cost.
