were did you buy the rod holders??? and screws?

thx

[fishyaker]

I usually get rod holders at Bass Pro, cut them to the proper legnth, and epoxy plastic plugs over the end. I like to use stainless hardware from and hardware store.

[urawayco]

You dont use any of the glue for the screws?

[fishyaker]

Oh yeh, I just ended up cutting that part out to make the clip a little shorter. Good point. Thanks!!!

[respiboy]

Wow,

That was very cool. I have wanted to see that done for a while now. Made it look vey simple I hope i will have it that easy when I do my kayak.

[fishyaker]

Thanks!

Just drop me a line if you have any questions. Its really quite easy. You just need to commit to cutting a hole in your yak... That's the stressful part.

Good luck!

John

How'd you put the washers on

[danishconsumer]

How did you put the washers on if you can't get access under the kayak that's my problem.

Using a hole saw makes the job a lot easier. Its just an oversize drill bit and in every hardware store. Good vid though...

I usually use Marine Goop. I have never had adverse reactions with the plastic, but I guess it could happen.

Loving the videos- Learning a lot

What kind of glue are you using on your installs....

I'm a little worried about glue reacting with or not sticking to the plastic. I have a pungo.
