Calling all Tinkerer's, Need helping rigging this Kayak for some ocean fishing.
This kayak has a goof weight Capacity and is long for speed, stable too, perfect for the bays or LJ.
Most of the standard material out there for rigging yaks doesn't apply very well to this particular kayak. As I am facing some challenges.
#1 No where can i fit the flush mount rod holders. The area outboard of the raised ridge that defines the seating area is contoured just enough to not accommodate a flush mount.
#2 This is a Tandem that can be fished Solo, the seat pictured is sitting in the Solo paddling position, all the other deck space around is molded and contoured to accommodate butts and feet, not flat usable deck mounted hardware. Any recommendations to make this fish able?
Two things I've been thinking about are integrating sometype of removable "cutting board" type material to cover the rear tandem seat to allow mounting of a bait tank, cooler, or kayak crate.
The other is to mount some flush mount rod holders in the very back and shoot some pvc forward and out of them to come and integrate with a crate / make rod holders.
Any suggestions?
