Rod Holders/rigging yak/ something a little different - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Oh I forgot to mention. I don't know if you can see in the pics, but the bungee is knotted through a hole on one end and the other end has a groove that leads into a hole. So it locks in and if you want to remove the cord it's as easy as pulling out and up and the one end comes off releasing all the rods. The end down by the reels has a plastic draw fitting on it. Just insert rod butt, push in button and pull it down to cinch it to the rod. Also, I'm going to be adding some pins into the long section at each end to break it all down into three smaller sections. The rest will be glued solid. If any one is thinking of doing something like this the only hard part was that I had to turn down a section of 1 1/4" PVC to fit into the rod holders. It was a little too big in diameter. So you will need a lathe or a friend with one.
