The boat is a 1983 16 skeeter sf115 bass boat and it.
Homemade rod rack for boat.
In recent years rod racks have become popular on catfish boats.
Northwest bass fishing episode 2 in this episode i take on the rod storage issue on my new to me boat.
I built this rod holder set up this spring for my bass boat.
So i needed the span to be short enough to fit that length.
These racks run from the port to starboard side across the back of the boat and are built to hold fishing rod holders.
A quick look at how i built a rod rack for my boat.
The basic idea of a catfish boat rod rack is to allow you to spread fishing rod holder across the back of the boat and raise them up to a working level so.
The shortest fishing rod i use is a 6 foot 10 inch rod for the most part.
You can always buy a rod rack but they are expensive and may not fit your boat just right.
The two structures for my rod rack are about 5 1 2 or 6 feet apart.
If you re looking for a versatile and portable solution that s low cost for storing rods on your catfish boat then the diy vertical rod storage rack is a great solution.
You also want them close enough so that your rods when stored don t have a bend in them.
To be honest i just kind of eyeballed this part.
