Sweet,

What's the deal with the bucket? It looks like you've mounted a whole bunch of PVC to it for rod holders. You're gonna look like a hedgehog with all the rods going all over the place.

Dan the 3 vertical ones are for travelling with 2 rods and the net, and the 2 out the side are if i want to troll with 2 rods and i want to troll out each side.

Thanks

If you get onto a good fish will that occy strap hold that container you dont want to lose your rods

[johnsonMAN]

Yeh i attach it properly once i get to the water and also i tether the rods. Its not as if im gonna hook up to a spaniard in a local creek!!

But yeh i use the occy strap and a piece of rope.

Me not knowing anything about kayaks maybe I shouldn't say anything... But me being me.. I noticed the anchor at the front of the yak, why? You'd be facing the wrong way if fishing at anchor. Why wouldn't ya attach it to the rear so your fishing with the tide:whistle:

BTW nice rig:)

I thought about that and could do it if i wanted to but i give u 1 reason.

EASIER.

plus i only use it when bait fishing so it dosnt really bother me.

Surely its easier and closer behind you???

Hence the greater storage room is always provided at the rear.......

[johnsonMAN]

O anyway i'm happy the way it is. I might try it next time

[Angus]

Na your probabl right mate.

I think the front of my yak is longer, hence your method would just not work for mine. But looking at yours it looks as if it would be pretty easy to just reach forward and grab it. So no worries. I like the cutting board idea as well.

Good idea.
