This is the best way to diy fishing rod hoder .Thank you!
I can’t decide if you are an artist or a teacher. Excellent video. Thank you.
Thanks I got some other cool DIY videos on my CZcams channel. Please check those out
I'll be making a couple of those as soon as I get the boat finished! Great idea!!
That’s awesome just remember I made that video over a year ago so the price of the PVC has gone up
I have watched ton of DIY projects with PVC pipes and yours sits at the top of the ladder for me. I really appreciate you for sharing this. I particularly like the sliding bar and adjustable angle using that pin approach. Very creative!
Cheers
Thanks if you’d like that one you’ll really love this one it’s about a PVC DIY transducer mount.

@@PROAMOUTDOORS, just watched it made me appreciate your creativity even more. The way you solve these DIY projects really stands out. it is just so practical and makes sense to me.
Big Thank you again
Dude!!, You're a genius! Great design and it was so easy to build I almost hurt My feelings building it😂. Keep up the good work!
Awesome man I’m glad you enjoyed the video and I hope you enjoy your rod holder it has worked well for My son.
Terrific! I like it better than the store-bought ones and cheaper too!
Thanks for watching. If you’d like that video you will love this one.

Nice looking project. Thanks for sharing.
There's a tool which makes cleanup of PVC burs quick and easy. It's called a machienist's de-burring tool. They're made (I think) by Vanco. When I got mine they were about $10.00. The de-burring cutter bit is changeable and just one will last a LONG time used only on PVC.
Just broke a rod holder from yak gear. Not paying $24 for one when I can have 2 or 3 for the same price. Love the vids for the Yukon and for kayaks in general 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Excellent! Thank you.
I want to appreciate my viewers and followers on my CZcams channel. I haven’t put a video out in a while this is because my video editing computer crashed. I started a GoFundMe account to raise the funds for a new computer. if you know anyone that can help so I can get more videos to my subscribers share this link, thanks.

"Unfortunately it's that long" hahaha. Great content 👍
Thanks , Now make a holder for a FLY ROD , I'd be interested !!
You have a gift for teaching my friend good job. Thank you
Thank you I’m hoping to have more DIY’s coming out soon
Nice work on that one. Too cool.
I fabricated used these rod holders last season for big catfish. Some thoughts after a season of use:
1. Use High strength PVC cement/adhesive at each junction with the exception of the threaded base
2. At each cement junction, use a small screw. Adhesive junctions are strong, but do not resist shear. Combine a mechanical connection and the overall strength jumps dramatically. A 1/2" wood screw or sheet metal screw is fine and only one is needed, even on the threaded connections.
3. The cost of PVC has gone through the roof. Sadly, these fun to make and prideful rod holders are now much more expensive to make than the cheapo Wal-Mart rod holders that are better constructed with better plastic.
4. For real strength, you need Glass Filled Nylon plastic. PVC is not a strong plastic, but if you are not hanging the bottom or hooking big cats using 7 foot poles, then these are fine. Remember, longer the pole, the more torque these holders will experience (Torque = Force x distance). I had a 30 lb blue cats crack each joint on one of mine. You have to have a high amount of drag to properly hook set a catfish while drifting/dragging. Thankfully I was next to the rod holder when it started to fail.
5. PVC is NOT protected against UV (Sunlight), so the paint is a necessity.
I really liked this project, so I am not slamming them at all. I have 5 of them on my pontoon boat, mounted using 2 flat plates of scrap steel and 2 bolts (one through the holder base) to clamp them to the rail. However, I had to upgrade to Nylon holders to handle the big fish and now use these most as rod storage only. These work great for a kayak on small to medium sized fish. My observations are solely my fault as I tried to use them as trolling/drifting/dragging rod holders for big fish.
Wow, I never had anybody to write that much or comment that much for one of my videos. Yeah that video I put up almost 2 years ago and the pricing has shut up since. Also I designed that Rod holder for kayaks to be lighter weight and in no way they should be used for big cats. Thanks for responding.
Great design
honestly the best design I've seen so far. I'm looking for ideas so I can create my own design. Thanks
Thanks for your support
Brilliant. Thank you! Where do you get the track from though?
The track is part of the kayak. Most kayaks already have tracks on them. If you don’t have a track you can go online and they sell them.
awesome vid ill try it out.
Jack Stephenson
Hey Jack I’m also still working on getting you set up with a good bait caster
@@PROAMOUTDOORS ok thanks
Jack could you please send me a photo of yourself to my email, thanks I’m going to use it to help get more stuff for you
Nice ly done and great process video! Curious as to what tracks you use for all your DIY accessories?
The one that comes with the kayak is the track that I use on the side
It is not a pressure cap. It is a male pipe thread cap.
Nice idea but due to inflation it’s better to just buy one. PVC is super expensive now. But thanks for the video sir.
Understand LOL I made that video over a year ago when the PVC was at a good price
@@PROAMOUTDOORS No worries sir. I figured the price went up since this video.
Great edits mani subed ya
👍🤛
Seems ok for small fish. But you hook into a good size stripper or a big catfish and I see the end folding over at the thin spot in the holder
Much stronger than you think but I do see your point. Just remember it’s just a $10 DIY LOL
I figure adjusting your drag and dummy cords would help most of those worries.
Show was all good to I realized you had triple 6 on the end of name advertisement.
I have no idea what you’re talking about a triple 6. That’s something I would never ever do
Went from triple 6 to 670 ok
🤙
What keeps it from unscrewing on a bigger fish? The pressure cap needs to be glued, doesn’t it?
No watch the video closer the pressure cap screws to the base of the rod holder then I have a pin that holds that in.
Where did you get that pressure cap? I can’t find one with flat on both sides. Standard clean out fitting has protruding square nut on side i want to lay flat on track/kayak.
Thanks for watching. I got all the parts in the plumbing department at Lowe’s. I could not find it either but I took a picture of it from online and showed it to a store representative and they showed me where it was. I could not find one at Home Depot. But you could also look there Or online. PS the parts are more than $12 now due to the rising cost of PVC
I thought you said no gluing at the start of your video
It would be good to see a video where you don’t need a workshop to make something
For the standard part there is no gluing as I showed in the video. But if you want to add the rod keeper part then you would glue it.
I wonder if you might be good enough to tell me what paint you used on the pipe, preparation, etc. please?
I used Krylon paint pacifically designed for outdoor plastic furniture.
Hold up.... Wait a cotton picking minute...... You left a step out.... You took it to paint and then returned with .... A. Green paint inside the holder OR B. you stuck some kind of rubber/foam inside holder.....
WHAT IS THAT GREEN INSIDE? Inquiring minds wanna know! If it is a rubber/foam, how did you adhere it?
Oh BTW this rod holder is BAD TO THE BONE!!!!
Yes you’re absolutely right. It is green bowl you can buy at the hobby store. And I used spray adhesive to stick it on.
@@PROAMOUTDOORS thanks for taking the time to answer me... This looks to be a great rod holder and should work in my big fish 120. I'm hoping to have enough time to make one sat & try it out Sun..... Keep up the good work....
Keep them paddles wet & them lines tight!!! Cheers
