3/4 i believe, cant remember how they size them but just eyeball them and see what your pole handle will fit in.

Rick, both Home Depot and Lowes has them, They are clearly the largest they have, and cost like $3.98 or $4.98.

Ok.... thanks. I plan on re-doing mine. Still debating using these or with a concept i thought of.

now that i nifty i like it may have to make me one lol

Oh I have this topic covered in spades.

Here is my "Custom" tiller steer I built for the motor. It works great! I was able to remove the whole console to open up the center of my boat.



Here is just another day in the life of keeping the boat running.



Here is my low cost Yeti.



There are more but these came to mind first.

Love the Yeti Danny!

Gotta get me a marks a lot and see if I can make me one of those-

thats cool....

Good looking stick steer

In action!!

I can't store my boat indoors so I made this rod storage for the garage that you pick up all together and strap in the boat. When you get home set it back in the garage.

Painted rod tips fluorescent yellow and spooled with hi-vis line. See the rods and line better in daylight. Summer fishing at night I have a 10' PVC pole with a 3' string of UV LEDs wrapped around at the top. All rods and lines shine in the UV making them very easy to see.

Rod holder for the bank fishing.

I have made some similar rod holders that bolt to the accessory rail on my Lowe boat so I can move them anywhere I want on the boat. I also made some shallow water anchors that I will upload the pics of later. I am going to copy the hell out of your fluorescent paint and UV light idea. That's very nice.
