I know a guy that makes rod holders that attach to your toolbox (if you have one). If you don't have a tool box you could bolt it through the back of the truck bed. The "thing" (for lack of better name) is essentially rocket launchers like on a T-top bolted to your truck. The unit is custom made of AL and hold 5-6 rods/reels up to 80W. I'll get a pic and a price if you are interested.
Make a 2 X ? to fit in 1 slot all the way across the bed, cut the top of this at 45* and mount another 2 X ? to this, mount 6-8 rod holders to this pointing out the back of the truck....it's cheap, removable, and keeps other stuff from sliding around!
I contacted my friend who makes the rodracks for your truck. Here are a couple of pics of one mounted in a F350.
My first try at posting pics here so lets see if it works.
Not sure if you have a full size truck or not, but he also has some for smaller trucks that hold 5 rods instead of the 6 that the full size truck model holds. Also he has a couple of of the small truck size powder coated.
6 rods or 5 the price is $150.00 for the polished AL
The powder coated ones are $200.00 and only available in the 5 rod configuration. Red or Blue.
I'll double check this, but I pretty sure that mounting hardware is included.
I am interested in one of the Dreamweaver, could you drop me a e-mail and give me the contact info.Im assuming its one of the local Pensacola boys...Baywatch, AAP, or Blue Coral. The price is alot cheaper than what I was quoted here in Mobile.
I wa thinking of getting some plastic holders and bolting them to the tool box.
I like this set up much better. Can you pls send me the info on where to buy this product.
thanks

We have the 8 holder rod rack that will bolt on a tool box. Price is only $275.00 + shipping. 6 holders is $240.00 + shipping. 252-353-8777, www.fish-ng.com
Will these hold three to four Penn 130'S set up for Giant Tuna Fishing? These look great and are quite the set up for the guy who doesn't want to leave gear on boat or trailers.
