    Hello everyone, I made a video on how to build PVC rocket launchers or rod holders for your kayak. This is a great DIY project and really shows you what you an do with PVC. There are so many ways to do this and not one method is the best. It is all personal preference. Has anyone made anything like this?

    nice but I cannot imagine lifting that onto the roof. Check out my video on my kayak build or the one that shows the kayak cart. You can see my bed extender in the video. Makes transporting the pro angler so much easier.

    There are some spots I launch where the truck angle is so extreme that the front tires are about 3 feet higher than the rear. That kayak would come sliding off of the roof like a toboggan.
