    image.jpg Snowboard / ski rack. Best way to carry surf rods! I'll get a cooler rack for te front but I don't like having 11'ers sticking up in the front of my truck for the long haul.

    That's the route I went. In fact, the trailer is hooked up right now and I'm leaving soon. Fish on.

    That may work in some situations unless you surf fish.

    I was tired of having my rod tubes sit on the seat or roll around on the floor so I installed some quick fists to the head liner. There is a piece of lexane behind the liner as a base plate.

    When the rod tube is not in there it holds an umbrella or mag light.

    I have used my Thule ski/snowboard racks too. They are good especially for longer poles.
