Jeff’s New Fishing Rod Positioning Device

Jeff McGovern has introduced many innovations in fishing from the W kayak. His latest rigging improvement is a device that helps you position your fishing rod inside your kayak’s cockpit.  Says Jeff:

-”I took one of those paddle clips and attached it to a section of pool noddle.  I plan on using it in place of the rod positioning one I have now that is just a crude grove cut into a section of the same stuff.  You might notice the screws holding the piece in place in the foam.  Those are actually not into the foam itself.  I used plastic screw in dry wall anchors with the tips cut off first, they work pretty well when working with foam.  They won’t handle a heavy load but for this purpose to position the rod tip it should be fine.”
