When I see something interesting I try to get a photo of it. The guy who built this was fishing at one of my frequent kayak launch sites this morning. I thought his design was really neat, a great solution to rod holders. I asked for permission to take the photo and he readily agreed.

It was made with square aluminum tubing. No special tools required. He also has a light bracket for a lantern but did not have it available to photograph. I don't think it would take a Rocked Scientist to figure out how to fabricate one.

Lots of folks have good ideas but never take the time to build them. Some folks readily share their ideas. Pete was one of them.

i dont know about this one :?
having rods on the outside of a car with south florida drivers doesn't seem like the best idea
also to stick them behind the bumper! :shock: they call it a bumper for a reason.....
besides in dade someone will just steel them at a red light
