- Here is a little DIY PVC kayak rod holder. Be sure to comment, like, and subscribe to get new videos when I have time to make something new. Also, you can find me on facebook at / diycajun
UPDATE: If anyone decides to try this out, you will need a washer between the pvc and the track. After tightening the bottom down a couple times I realize the track was damaging the bottom of the pvc.
Hello from Lake Charles! You should use a rectangle head brass toilet bolt. Slides right in the track like they were made for it 👍🏻
@@CallSignWhiplash Thanks might give it a try.
I use the same coupler for my bridge and pier rod holders. Awesome build!
Great Video. Love the Cajun Music....
My OCD kicked in when he didn’t center the drill bit . 😆😆🤪🤪🤪
nice idea.. thanks
It is considered best practice to apply primer to both PVC pieces.
You're supposed to primer all surfaces receiving cement. What sense would it make you only primer one? Also an elevator bolt with a ground head will fit and lock it's square flanged neck within the track slot and slide within back and forth like a dream. It's funny cause I built this in my head already then hit RUclips to see others ideas for yak rod holders realizing I already had nailed it myself. lol I absolutely love being a diy minded crafty person, can't wait to meet a yuppie yaker who blew a couple hundred on yakattack holders and show em my 4 homebrew holders for $15. LOL
Very nice video. Quite creative!!! But a little word of caution. That white pvc material or the black abs stuff is not very UV resistant. A few years out in the direct sunlight will make it very brittle and weak. So it's quite possible a big fish could cause you a lost rod and reel. I suggest using the gray electrical pipe conduit that is formulate for outdoor commercial use. This would make a much stronger, longer lasting product. But it's your call. Best of luck to you.
Jack Ellenberger Thanks, much appreciated.
How about if I paint the PVC ?? Won't that help give it more life in the sun ☀️ ??
They don't make wye's in electrical fittings
Just use
schedule 80 pvc
or get CPVC
But now it's turning into dollars as they are more expensive fittings
So just make more then one and when you feel it getting weak toss it
Just mÿ .02cents
Thats why he painted it champ. a year on lol. welcome to last week.
Man that's pretty nice! Looks legit as well. Going to modify your idea of mounting to fit my johnboat! Have you had anything in the 50,60lb range pulling on the rod holders yet?
I have not, (still trying to get that big boy). Will let you know if that happens.
Nice creativity.... I think when I do this, I will do the 'cutaway' so the reel is on the bottom.
The width of the rod opening. Is the width small enough that you have to slide the rod out from the top or is there enough space to lift the rod out of the holder.The length of the channel . Is there any advantage to extending this channel further down the receiver/pipe?Nice video - thank you
Super rigid fully functional nice looking rod holders .
Amazon rod holders are less expensive
I'd like to see them. I haven't seen any that mount to a rail that are as cheap as this would be to make...
Nice job. I was thinking that using it upside down and you would have 2 positons. Then I see there is not enough space for the rod to go all the way in. Thanks for the video
Cheaper to buy a rod holder lol
Show me a link.
Track mounted rod holders for kayaks are like $20 minimum for an average one. This is like $4-5 to make. Not sure on the logic of buying one being cheaper.
It’s the enjoy ment of making it your self
Cutting those slots is a good idea from keeping your rod from flying out. You know how those flying fish are.
Good idea. You can put a screw on the side some how and cut notches to turn different positions and lock in place
I Like This Idea, A Little Different and it works on tracks , ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You're a good fabricator but a crap painter 😂😂
His wife on the other hand did an excellent job of painting them green!
So you are so right!
this same idea with the Y PVC added with a long rod would be good for bank fishing
spray paint with a sweeping motion back and forth, short strokes great idea though
Allowing each coat of paint to dry before spraying on the next will prevent runs and drips. Yes good idea.
I really like ur idea and I'm gonna try a version of it. I would love to have scottys or yakattacks but funds prohibit it. I've always liked and found satisfaction in "makin it rather then buyin it" anyway. Thanks for the inspiration. :-)
awesome; I think I'm going to do this.
THE WAGON PIT BOYS I would like to figure out some kind of quick release.
thanks very clean and easy to understand!
And nut like size did you use
New sub great video thanks for the tips
Thanks
genius and new subscriber
How big of a bolt
Very nice
Smart. Love the idea
Very helpful and inventive!
That hail will wreck cars... I make PVC rod holders too. Take a look
I subbed your page. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome video!! I'm heading to the Philippines 🇵🇭 December will be there 7 months. I own a house there and looking for ways to troll and keep my poles holder. I will be video there too thanks
NICE VIDEO.
Thanks
Love this
Thanks
Love this idea to utilize the tracks..Definitely making these when I get my new yak soon...Keep Crushing It!!

Very nice
Yes indeed! Great concept!
Thanks
Thanks
How much did one cost you to make?
Probably a couple bucks each. I already had everything but the glue. Locally we have a building resell store where you can buy lightly used or donated building supplies. I would check there for some PVC. Otherwise if you had to buy the PVC, paint, glue, etc. it would be out of range.
Cool video just subbed have a good day
Thanks!
SO EXPENSIVE.. TRAY THE MEXICAN WAY...VERY CHEAP.
Would love the see the "very cheap" way.
Where are u from

That's kewl,, I'm from Houma ,,
Annoying music drowns you out.
Neat project! Quite creative! But "gravity" causes the rod to fall in place?! Gravity is a theory that has NEVER been, and can not be proven, or tested; could it be that the rod is just more dense than the surrounding air, so it can't be supported by the air, and just falls into place????
CaptainConstruction ha... um I guess I just guessed on that one.
@@CoastalTrailsOutdoors Not a guess. You are correct.
You wouldn't survive on a construction site if you didn't believe in gravity my friend
So...I wonder what shape you think the Earth is.🤣
