Great question wax! I'm all ears if you have any ideas. I could simply put rod holders in there but that would take up too much room. I would like to be able to put other things in that center compartment.
In the garage I use a broom holder, the kind that have springs in them that close shut they are wide enough not to dammage your rod & hold them in place, just screw them in wherever you wan't. Cheap too.
I'm really liking all your ideas about using velcro! I never thought of that. Please keep all ideas coming!Steuby1
You could use a clip like this to hold the handle of the rods.(Image removed from quote.)
LOL.....I smoke myself Jeff! Anyway, fantastic looking job. Got a couple of questions.....1 With the added weight, can you pick it up to load it?2 And where in the hell is the food compartment?
Loading it is not a problem. I use the otter only when I am pulling it with my sled. Actually I never lift it. I back it on the trailer with my sled and unhook it. It could weigh 400 lbs and it would not matter. The mod was all designed to keep my fat butt comfortable fishing all day!Steuben1
