Welcome and best of good luck with the V.

Agree that most any rod holders should work - keep in mind, if the cross bar at bottom of holder isn't a good angle for the rods to set into, you can drill new cross bar holes and create a new cross bar with stainless screw and nut.

Hey thanks for all the support guys!! I'll snap some more pics of her when I get it back from canvas. Looking forward to this striper season Running up the coast with some bunker spoons! Anyone here drag wire?

Welcome and congrats on the V.:clap:

Fish on Sports is the arch that I went with and happy with it. Debated for a long time but fold down mounts as standard equip. and free shipping won out. They also have lot of accessories you can add later if you like.
My V is a 78 i/o.

Hey any pics of that?

Yup, sure do - the umbrellas and spoons, mostly from Shark River - Belmar up to Sandy Hook and Raritan.

Stay in touch.

Naaa... Got tired of wire. I use Invader electric downriggers now. I can see the 10# weight on my fish finder and between that and the line counter on the downrigger I know exactly how deep my umbrellas are. Much more accurate. Plus if I'm just using lures or spoons I can stack them on the downrigger wire with clips at different depths so I can fish 2 or 3 rods off each downrigger.

Destroyer I get where your coming from. Down riggers are great for placing the bait where u need to. Tony maja makes a great rig to run spoons with down riggers. Most wire line like Monel has a permanent sink rate so I know the depth with ease

I really think most of this board is us NJ guys! lol

Welcome! Good luck with the new boat!

Nj everywhere! I'm hoping to see u guys out there this season!! We should get trips together and do some inshore together!
