Scotty Rod Holder

[Surfmonkey]

Where is best place, locally, to purchase Scotty Rod Holder?

[Yak-a-Lou]

Best price is at Academy. I thing they're about $17 there while they run as high as $30 at some other stores.

Academy is cheapest local. on the web...... muah

Academy IS a club sponsor.... look at the banners as well as they give us door prizes for demo days and tournaments. If it were an item that required some detail for installation then maybe but this is not brain surgery! I always try to support club sponsors first and then look elsewhere when they do not have what I want or there is a BIG price difference.

I love the folks at academy. A great place and the right price

Intalled one this morning. Took all of 30 minutes for the flush mount. Great little product..........

I've got a wilderness systems tarpon with the slide trx. Do I need to buy another piece to put in the trax then attach the scotty rod holder to it? or would the scotty already slide in it?

It looks as though there is a mounting plate offered by Wilderness Systems that will accept anything you want to add to your yak without having to drill holes.

Looks like you can buy a base plate for $30 to mount a $17 rod holder. HMMMM

[ReelNauti]

looks to be that way. think I will just go with some flush mount rod holders for now.

[Psycho Joe]

Give me a few minutes to look at what you have and I bet I can come up with something a LOT cheaper and just as good as that $30 mount.

Try old foot supports to see if they fit the track, then try duilding something from that starting poit. Maybe PVC.
