Being my first thread I thought I would start by saying I just got my first Jeep Cherokee a month or so ago. I am looking for a fishing pole rack for the top. I have looked at Bass Pro, and Cabelas and didn't see much I liked. I would like to get one that can take highway speeds with out loosing the poles. I would prefeer a covered one, but have been considering making single pole holders out of PVC pipe from Home Depot. Any ideas would be great,,, THANKS

 

Why not go with one inside? I have this one mounted on my roof between the dome lights.

It's the fifth one down. The twist lock one.

 

link dodnt work

(send it to the product rather than the shopping cart)

 

Thanks Evil,,

Never thought about going inside, may work for me.

 

I don't have a picture, but on my old chevy van I took a 4" wide 5' length of pvc and made brackets to mount to the roof inside. Used threaded end caps , keep neat and tiddy.

 

I'm sooo....rude. Welcome to CF !

 

oh yah me to... WELCOME from leo in AL

dont forget to consider the length of your rod cuz i fly fish and my 9ft'r woudnt fit inside (its a 4 peice though)

another thought, if you have a case for your rod you could strap it to the top

 

ive been thinking about making one of my own also. probably exterior, but i also want a roof rack so if i make that ill make something on the rack. if i do i will post it with pics and everything. if not and you do it, please show us how you did and where you decide to mount it and stuff. thanks
