I have a Colorado pontoon and was wondering about some ideas on getting it rigged up.Pictures would be great. Completely stock at the moment. But it did come with a dual anchor system. I 100% fly fish so what ever I decide to do, it has to be clean so my line dosn't get snagged in everything.

I like a rod holder on my tube for when I'm handling fish or putting on a minnow. It is also handy when paddling (i.e. kicking with swim fins) from place to place.
Not sure how to rig a holder for a fly rod for landing fish but velco straps would work well for holding it while paddling from place to place.

I have 2 rod holders made of PVC tube on mine. Actually, mine didn't have a platform in the back, so I made one from PVC and plywood, and I incorporated a couple of Tees to make rod holders from. It works pretty well, although I need something to hold my rods flat when I'm passing under trees, especially over rapids. I'm heading to Beavers Bend next weekend to float (and fish) the Lower Mountain Fork from the Reregulation Dam to the Hwy 70 bridge. I picked up a 1-1/2 lb folding anchor on Amazon for $11.02. A couple of velcro straps to hold rods when I'm passing through tight spots and I'm ready to go.
