Roof Rack Fishing Rod Mounts
After my friend closed a $200 St. Croix rod in the door of my XJ, I'm trying to figure out how I could put rods up on the factory cross rails of the roof rack. Any products out there that youve seen that would work? Or any ideas on how to make something?

Ive seen rod mounts on the inside of the jeep on the roof. Im sure if you wanted em up top you could fabricate some kind of hole for the rod to go into and then something else that makes sure it doesnt slide around up there.
Id just keep inside..tell your bud to watch what the hell he is doing! haha

Remove reels and keep rods in a long piece of PVC, cap both ends and bungy to roof rack, or I've seen some similar to these screwed onto the roof rack cross bars and then you can just strap em in and you're good to go:

UGH!!!!!
I just read this tread and told my wife that I was going to mount fishing rod holders in my Jeep....she said problem is it's not your Jeep, ever since I bought the Jeep she has claimed it, well it's time to start looking for another one.
