Where to fix the RAM rod holders on your W Fishing Kayak:
You can order RAM and RAP rod holders mounted on top of the hulls outside the cockpit (as shown in the photos), or on top of the saddle inside the cockpit.
Any combination of rod holder models and mounting spots that suits your fishing style is OK with us.

Note: When mounted, the flush mounted rod holders point outwards in diagonal on two axes, and go down 7" into the 14" high tip of the W fishing kayak hull.


ADVANTAGES  VS. DISADVANTAGES

Advantages of optional deck mount rod holders over flush mount (standard) rod holders:
1. More storage space available inside the hull tips
2. Better control over the rod's direction and angle
3. Deck mounted rod holders keep your fishing rod higher above the water, and this fact is important if you fish in salt water, which is corrosive.
4. Ability to secure the rod in place (RAM-117, RAP-340, RAP-341, RAM-114)


Disadvantages of optional deck mount rod holders over flush mount (standard) rod holders:
1. Higher price
2. Deck mount rod holders on the saddle top take more usable space inside the cockpit than flush mount rod holders do
3.  Standard flush mount rod holders weigh less than deck mount rod holders


You can quickly dismount the RAM rod holder from its mount for easier transportation.
