    Passenger Rod Holder Bass Tracker

    Just finished up my rod holder for the passenger side. My dad was getting tired of his rods getting all tangled up so i made this for him to keep things in place. Works excellent. Almost every new glass boat has one so why cant we right?

    Put some stick jackets on those rods and it would be perfect in my eyes. Secure and tangle free.

    Rods all have stick jackets when in the rod box but not on the deck. We both swap rods so much and this rack is just for running on the water. Everything gets put away when on the road.

    Thx guys. Glad you all like it. If any of you wanna make one heres the material list: 1/4" aluminum 9X10". The grommets are the rubber mounts for 2" trailer lights on semis. Got them at napa and i made the spacers out of aluminum pipe and stainless hardware. Total cost of about $30

    You would be surprised at how small of a space it really takes up. I love mine and don't even notice it's there unless I'm using it.

    Glad the 5 rod size ended up working out for you. I wouldnt have a problem making a 3 rod model if there were guys looking for a smaller version.
