Rigging a 2006 OK Drifter for fishing
I have an OK Drifter I would like to rig up for fishing. I usually do not take much with me at least not more then you can pack in a wade belt. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or pic on how I could rig my Drifter. I would like to rig some rod holders, milk create, GPS and maybe an anchor system. I know allot is really preference but I would like to get some ideas before I start drilling holes. Thanks

Had a Drifter and I would suggest not using flush mounted rod holders. The Drifter sit a little low in the water and flush mounts might get your reels wet with salt water. The tank well of the drifter doesn't accept a regular sized milk crate, but you can find Sterilite plastic boxes at Wal-mart that fit. I like to attach my rod holders to the plastic boxes in the tank well.

AT one time
YOU can have flush mounted rod holders and simply get the correct size pvc and cut a long enough piece as you need to get your rods above the deck and out of waves and spray. This is what I did with the 160. Lot of the time I use the rod holder to put my anchor in when not in use.
