Ive been searching and searching for ideas on holders for my bassboat. Well I bought my house from a ag teacher and he had left alot of stuff in the barn. So I went searching thru the stuff the other day and hit pay dirt. He has a bunch of sheep equipment that he welded together. They are to hold the sheep in place while he shaved them. I cut and bent the rods and turned them into rod holders. Im going to clean them up and paint them but they should work good. ![](http://imageshack.us/a/img51/2678/2012100517473076.jpg)

seeing that little chain on the back left side gave me an idea - get a small amount of chain for both back corners. stake the chain into the ground and you got a good bank rod holder kit.

I do a lot of river fishing from the back seat of a flat bottom jon boat with a seat mount on each side. I use 3 rods, 2 big ones baited with perch, or large pieces of cut bait and a smaller rod baited with catalpa worm or night crawlers. I made this rod holder so I can keep my little rod close to me so I can put a hook in those little bait snitchers lips! ![](http://myfolderz.com/TFF/images/RodHolder.jpg)

With the stand being infront it wont tip over i was thinking to stake it into the ground for those cold, windy/blistery days that i sure hope winter gives us! ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)
