Nailer Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I would put them 6-10" forward of the "R" in the first pic. Mine slip over the Aluminum peg that's mounted on the front of the wood plank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjk984 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) As far forward as I could set mine. But behind the driver seats so you don't have to reach around the operator. Mine work great. Steve Edited May 3, 2011 by Nailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priority1 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 As far forward as possible and still reachable from the fishing area. With the rods forward they are not in the way while fighting a fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO MO BEGGEN Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 if it were me i would put them right even with the backrests of your driver and passenger seats so the persons driveing and rideing would not be in the way of grabbing a rod when it goes off. and you wouldnt have to lean over someones back to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Ken, what size tubing did you make those trees out of, I'd like to make something exactly like what you have for my boat. thanks, mrhookup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimcr Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Well I 'm just a little behind posting so here is a shot of the rod trees installed, Thanks for your input on the placement. These are awesome, Wish I would have put them on to start with. Really keeps the lines seperated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
