Just picked up a couple more of these to install on the yak. The rocket launchers are really the way to go.  |

They look awesome if you plan on keeping the rod up. When I musky troll without boards I like to have the rods sticking straight off the sides. |

And in one of those kayaks where you actually have to paddle with your arms, it also means hitting the rods every single stroke and getting pissed off. lol

I know but some guys I know use their rod holders for both just moving them between the two.
Just wondering when salmon trolling with your kayak do you finding have 3 baits that close together makes a difference with hook up numbers?

I've run these "straight off the sides" for kings from the kayak. Haven't lost a rod yet!
Teddy, I picked these up for $45 each on Amazon. Cashed in some credit card rewards points so it didn't really hit my wallet.
To Nick's point - YES keeping the rod butt out of your way is key no matter what kind of kayak you have.
