Check Dustin/Rockhoppers post on his boat. Really nice set up.

Hi Spiff,

As far as mounting the gps/ff I decided to do something similar to what I watched on a Headwaters how to video. I store the gps/ff in the front hatch and then set everything up before wheeling to the launch.  Once I'm on the water I only need to drop the transducer into position (I marked lines with a silver marker on the pivot points). The Scotty transducer mount is a bit flimsy but it works. The gps/ff mounts using a suction cup, which has worked quite well with the Hook 5. This method doesn't require any cutting or drilling into the kayak.

I was having a lot of trouble with the friction style of rod holders. No matter how tight I would set them up they would slowly drift  back fouling my paddling. I settled on a Stealth brand rod holder that won't budge once it is in position. It is also super easy to get the rod in and out without much reach.

I just ordered a laketroller down rigger so I will need to figure out how mount it next, so I can try for salmon in the next few weeks

Good luck on your efforts.

That's some serious flotation... Looks very spiffy too...

Nice work!

I love those Railblaza mounts---no big holes to drill and yet a solid connection that won't slip or accidentally pull out. They are kinda spendy, but worth it, IMHO.
