[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 53438, member: 55"] You are actually the first and only person, out of probably a 1000 or more that I have seen/heard say that shad need not be in round tanks. Not saying you are wrong, but real hard to go by that. I do like the idea of wingnuts replacing the top nut though. Didn't even think about that before - just used what I had around. As far as the bases, I think 3/8 is enough. The Driftmaster bases, which are all the rage, don't have any more than that. Most bass boats have the rods run up the side of the buddy seat, to the edge of the deck, and I haven't had a problem with, nor have heard of people having problems with putting them there. When people fished with me out of this rig, since the last rod ramp didn't work, they would just put the butts on the bow deck, and the tips on the stern deck without a problem. This idea doesn't raise the tips up more than an inch, so they are still protected by the gunwale, and the fact that they are so close to the edge, that you can safely stand there. [/QUOTE]
