Solotripper,

Nice setup. I like your rod  holders made out of gutter downspouts .


I couldn't find ROUND ones so I went with those. The idea works BUT they don't lay under gunnels as I wanted them to. I had them in front of canoe, THAT turned out to be mistake
Still caused issues with snagging rods loading/unloading packs in less than ideal conditions.

Next trip I'm going with ROUND 2" PVC pipe I honeycombed out to save weight.
Will zip tie under gunnels in stern and secure butt end of rods under portage yoke. We'll see how THAT works out?
