Rod holder and Tackle tray mount
With the pending electrification of the OK yak, I needed to mount some new rod holders. So I decided to use some existing berkly rod holders I had and some existing mounting screws that were already in the yak. Again still no holes drilled in the yak. I also added a sliding tackle box so that I have easy access to changing lures. (something I was lacking a bit before). A few bends in the ally, stainless screws and pop rivets and vola....... Time to test it as soon as I can, it won't interfere with the paddling and I can see the rods when I am trolling and or bait fishing.

Well past the edge, almost at the point of no return.
