Picked up my snapper racks today, unlike KKW's these are the high quality ones and they fitted straight in without any adjustments needed.
Attached File  IMG_0010_opt.jpg ( 63.33K ) Number of downloads: 54

All the up down & sideways angles look good so I don't think I'll be losing any rods overboard, the harder you pull on the rods the tighter they get in the racks.
Looking forward to giving them a go so I can give a full report on them.

Angle of the dangle is to high Fed

Defeats the purpose of using bait runner reels

Need your rod tip to be virtually parrallel with the gunnels [I have mine no more than 10 degrees up

By doing this the rod does not come into play just the bait runner mode on the reel & less chance of the fish droping the bait

Pretty easy for you to put a bend in the main tube up near the top Jumpy, I'll see how they go first.

Near enough to $50 each Majed so they weren't too bad.

Yeah that'll do the trick & pretty easy to do cause the top end of the upright tube is allready flattened

Just be wary you dont go to far with the bend else ewe riskcollapsing the tube

There's lots of different ones on the market Christos but we took these ones for a run today and we are more than happy with them.
