Fishing Pole Rack

#1 Post by Meleina » Mon Mar 28, 2011 5:23 pm

Just ordered a new Bennington 2075 GLi. It is not a fishing model but I would like to have a pole rack and holders. Anyone have a rack recommendation? Would prefer to have a clamp on type product versus screw in. Any pics would be appreciated.

If you can't find a temp installation you like and don't want to drill holes, Home Depot carries some industrial velcro the you could probably use to mount them. Have used them to attach different items to the helm an work well. If it doesn't have a flat surface but screw holes you can mount a small block of wood or something similar as a mounting surface.

Welcome aboard. Go to bottom of this page "JUMP TO" Check out Camping and Fishing. This topic along with pictures will give you some Ideas. I'll be posting some pictures of what I did to remedy my situation in the next couple months. I'll post it as a new post so keep an eye out in May. Right now we still have ten inches of snow on the ground and my pontoon is still covered for the winter. Also Overton's has some Rod Holders for you to consider too. Just type Overton into Google and go to their web site. You also can request a catalog.

I bought the Mueller aluminum with slide in rubber sections. They seem to be of high quality and do not take up a lot of room.

If you want an easy way to go, buy one of the 3-6 rod holders that attach by screws. then atach to rails with electric ties. Use them, cut them off when through and repeat when needed. The ties are cheap. I've never used them on a toon, I don't own one yet, but I use it on a bumper hitch rack. capt david

I understand that you may not want to screw in a rod holder, but in my opinion a properly placed high quality rod holder is something you will never regret. I have the type shown below and I think they are great. I have 4 throughout my boat and they come in very handy. You can even get them in chrome for a little bit more cash.

I'm having trouble getting the link to work, but just go to Bass Pro Shops, and search for rod holders. It's $15.99

I have Fpur Cabella's I bought from a pontoon member last summer and they work great. They clamp on the rails. No holes to drill so they can be moved if you don't get them just where you want them.
