way to protect the rods
When you launch how do you store your rods??? Does anyone has any pics... I been thinking about making a sort of a pod to tie in the back and put the rods in there so it would protect them in case of a roll and keep them out of the way

Sasha, if you can't get them inside the yak, you might want to leave the reels off, strap them together and use on of the paddle keeper spots on the yak (assuming you have them); and throw a leash on them during launch and landing.

I dont feel right about getting the rods in the front hatch. I just know something is going to happen to me while i got it open. i dont have paddle keepers on the side. So still thinking about making a pod to keep the rods .

try moving rods in / out of the front hatch in calm water first, in a bay for instances, and see how comfortable you are

Pool noodle trick. Remove the reels stash them in a dry bag inside the yak, cut a pool noodle in half length wise. I use 3 velcro straps to hold the noodle around the rods and bungee the rods wrapped in the noodle to the yak

I saw a guy with an 8 foot length of 3 inch A.B.S with caps on the ends strapped to the side of his yak. I assumed it's where he stored his rods
