    My son and I have bought a new WX 2060, first Skeeter for me his second, and I am looking for suggestions for mounting rod holders. I don’t think I want to mount them on the rails. I have looked at the traxtech and extrememax systems. What other options are there and I would like to hear what others have on their boats and what you like or dislike about them.
    Thanks

    I bought a new 2060 last fall and mounted mine on the rails, no holes to drill and easy to take off if I don’t like them. seem to work good there

    I don’t have a skeeter but I absolutely love my traxstech system. Downriggers, rod trees, rod holders. The durability can’t be beat.

    I have a WX2060 and have 3 rod holders on each rail. I also have a 3 rod tree holder in front of my rail. I really like the trees. Last boat I had 3 rod holders on each side in a track. I think you are going to get a 50/50 answer. Good luck

    Regardless of how they are mounted, I like to have two of the “Rocket Launcher” style rod holders. I mount them beside the drivers seat and the passengers seat. The reason I use them in those locations is because they do not allow the handle of the rod to intrude on the interior space of the boat. Scotties or Rams allow the rod handle to poke you in the side while you sit in your seat. The Scotties or Rams are great holders for other mounting locations in my boat.
