This past May I fished the Plum Island Invitational Tournament, hosted by the Plum Island Surfcasters. The tournaments starts at midnight and ends at 9:00 AM. To properly fish this nine hour tournament, you need to move from hot spot to hot spot as the tide changes. And you need your rod ready to go at all time. Hence, you need a rod rack. I picked up the RodBunk.
I read the RodBunk installation instructions from start to finish. Then I inserted them into the recycle bin. I developed my own method for securing the RodBunk straps in my Suburban without drilling any holes. The method works well and it’s non-intrusive.
For the rear strap, I built a 1” x 3” wooden frame and screwed the metal loops to the frame. I secured the wooden frame to a 2′ x 4′ piece of plywood for stability. I secure both straps to the frame when I am not transporting rods.
During the Plum Island Invitational, the RodBunk kept my rigged 10′ surf rod and reel safely above my gear.
The RodBunk continues to keep my rods and reels protected from the elements and thieves. All without breaking the bank.
