TerryS Posted April 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Ok I went for it. Used 30 degree Gemlux if you run them straight back they fit between the rod tube and inside gunnel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 I put two there in my 2200 as well. My boat is 2012 and does not have the open gunnel so I really could not offer much to the discussion before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernieNC Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Only thing is it might be challenging to pull 4 lines with that setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryS Posted April 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Agreed I Mainly wanted them there because they were much easier to reach for me back problems you know but I’m not much of a troller but they would be perfect for outrodders or holding my bait cutting table my next mission is to add two more to the Forward gunnel for drift fishing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Yes that is a better position for setting your rod down. From the floor of the boat or from the deck it just works not having the rod holders so far aft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smilemaker Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 For easy rigging and just having a place to set a rod a 0 deg holder in each gunnel is nice. After landing a fish placing it straight up makes it easy. Also nice to place a cutting board in a 0deg holder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryS Posted April 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Put 2 more up front 15 degree they really should come standard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernieNC Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 You will get good use out of those. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to do that on my 2400. Really could use a couple rod holders up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
