How do you use multiple fly rods in a Pro Angler? The rod holders I see illustrated won't work, I think.
thanks
You would have to be a extremely talented juggler to use multiple fly rods pull that one off! Most folks require both hands for casting their flys, but I have to admit, it would be pretty nifty to see someone cast and retrieve 2 to 4 fly rods at same time... regardless of the boat/yak!
However, I bet you probably meant storing multiple fly rods in a PA. If that was what you were referring to, it all would depend upon your rods. I use some TFO rods that break down into Four sections for traveling. The rod tube makes it really nice, convenient and safe when traveling. If you have either a two or one piece set up, your method would be different of course. One piece rods would require you to stand them up vertical or angled behind you unless you rigged a horizontal holder on the side of the yak (use Hobie's horizontal rod holder on the H-rail outside of the yak).
I'm still not understanding why you would want to take multiple fly rods unless you are going to "spider rig" a set-up up front. In that case, I wouldn't use fly rods, I would use other rods designed for that purpose. Bottom line, where there is a will, there is a way! Good Luck!
