I havent seen any cudas yet so heres mine, its simple.



Elite 4xhdi fish finder, on a Ram transducer mount and 1" ram ball. The battery is in a plastic ammocan inside my Cuda's hatch. When im catfishing i use Ram 2007 rod holders on 1.5" yak attack trac balls. Custom cut gear track 2" pieces. Easy to remove and put in cuda hatch when not using them and they dont get in my way when paddeling. Anchor trolley with figure 9 carabiner for anchor.


just an old milk crate with 3 rod holders for extra rod, net, and light. Stock with cuda's ram rocket tubes with leashes so i don't lose a rod trolling.


simple but effective. i like simple.

Very nice. I have a big tuna and am trying to install an anchor trolley instead of using the rear fixed anchor location. Did you have to drill at all? Also, do you have a float on your anchor line to be able to un-clip? Thanks for the help, I like what you've done to your cuda.

Looks good. I use the same rod holders on my commander.

I have a simple setup like yours, Marcus. Though, now I think I'm going to add your no-drill anchor trolley. I don't anchor much, so I've been hesitant to drill into the yak unnecessarily. However, your setup looks really nice.

sweet rig, heres a pic of what i did i found online.
.

I just made loops out of extra bungies, thread the bungie through the bungie holders on front and back, slide the pullies onto the bungies, tie it in a knot, then run the trolley line through your pulleys, the bungies on the ends help keep the anchor line tight. its simple as can be. i dont anchor alot either but it has become priceless i fish alot of timber and i hook my brush clip and position my boat with the trolley i love it its a must have.
