bucket mod for vexilar
« on: Nov 12, 2018, 04:15 PM »
I travel on foot so travel light. Tri pod chair over one shoulder and auger in that hand. My modified bucket in the other. The bucket has PVC rod holders and obviously my Vexilar sits in the bottom of the bucket. I was wondering if anyone had come up with a way to "suspend" the vex like halfway up in the bucket. Some kind of stand or something I guess. This would make the Vex easier to see and even create a little more storage below it. I know you can simply flip the bucket over to see it easier but this doesn't work well since I have rods mounted on the bucket.

I mated two ram mounts for my bucket rig.
