hopfully in the next couple weekends I will go fishing again Last year I built a (nearly horizantal) rod holder to hold 6 rods but I found I really only needed and used 2 and sometimes 3 that is my spare and a guest so I created this 3 rod holder for this yearthe actual rod holder is removable from the chest it sits on and the chest has my tow rope/strap and other recovery items (I got far out in 4x4 country to fish)
and you might ask why horizontal and not verticle like most people?
because at 70mph I dont like bugs and wind smacking my rods
with this the rods (tips) sit on my closed tailgate and thus rest sticking out just a tad now when I get to the beach and 20mph is the limit the bug arent a problem, but the trip is worry free
