A buddy of mine has a 28' southshore center console. He mainly fishes the coast and now wants to start bluecat fishing in it. This boat could easily be an awesome bluecat drifting machine. Only problem is the rails on his boat are too big for the rodholders im familiar with. I belive they are 1 1/4" round rails. Does anyone know of some bases that will work on rails that are that big, reasonably priced, and work well? Jerry Dillard

Someone please correct me if I am wrong. Last edited by big10; 11/19/12 09:03 PM. Jerry Dillard

The PVC I bolted to is 1-1/4" thick walled lined inside with metal pipe soit won't crush by tightening bolts. Last edited by ChugR; 11/23/12 05:59 PM.

They are a machined aluminum block that you drill 2 holes and bolt the base on. It has "V" on bottom. I had specs drawn up on my computer to send to machine shop or make at home for my own design.

I use these with 3/4 in conduit to make rod holders but they have 1 1/4 rings kind words are not always truthful. Truthful words are not always kind.
