Just came off water last weekend. Mrs Bexars has the X-Factor. The middle pvc on the 160i, holds an Energizer 360 lamp. I stay close to the X, it has the beer.

Hey Gang,

I just left Bass Pro and they have 3-rod holders that are a perfect fit for milk crates. They are $11.99 a piece.

I have one that I have from Academy and I used bungies to afix it to my crate; however, with the heat the tightness the rod holder and create are distored/deformed/warped. With the one I got from BPS just now I can use screws to afix them to the create. The ones from Academy are a tad bit too long to screw them to the create. In other words, the screw holes are not in the right place on the Academy. I would post pictures but I need to pack up and fish tonight. Headed to Texas City Dike for some trout hopefully.

Tight lines........

SOUTHWESTPADDLESPORTS · Sun Oct 07, 2007 10:33 am

Depending on which brand any where from about $150 to $250, that one in the picture would be around $300 though since it is an Accent Helium.

The addiction started with the Pelican Castaway. Sold it a few years ago…

Here is my ole’ trusty Prowler 13. I just added a Manta Ray 12 to the collection (thanks Chris!), but have not had the chance to get any pics of it yet. I need to put a few more scratches on it and catch a few more fish out of it before I post any pics… I should be able to do that over the next few weeks (fingers crossed).

Justin,
Nice Dakota. I just bought an '02 SXT. Looks a lot like yours. How far back does the Prowler 13 hang past the tail gate? I am planning on building a trailer, but gotta use the bed for now...... Have you tried on top of the tail gate and the cab to shorten the overhang?

Thanks!!

Bob

Justin_Time · Post by **Justin_Time** » Fri Oct 12, 2007 2:30 pm

Hey there, Bob. Thanks for the compliment on my truck. Mine is actually a 03 RT (The stickers are taken off the sides). She has a nice 5.9L tucked under the hood. Perfect truck for those trips to the coast when you sleep in a little too long…

I usually just slide my yak in the bed with the tailgate down and tie it down really good. I hang a red flag from the rear and am good to go. It does get a little hairy when I haul two yaks because the bed isn’t quite wide enough for them to lay flat. I have hauled my Prowler and my buddies Manta Ray 14 quite a few times though.

I would like to get some racks but I don’t really care for the way they look and they would probably get in the way when I am not hauling yaks. I might pick some up at some point, but haven’t really made up my mind yet.

I inserted a few more pics of my truck. You don’t see many of them around anymore, as 03 was the last year they were made.

Well, I managed to break the new yak in right. Yellow Manta Ray 12. If you havent had a chance to paddle one, I suggest you check em out. Great little boat...

Malibu Kayaks, X-Factor 600# payload...It's a good thing:

I need to figure out something with that paddle holder. It really attaches the paddle in an awkward fashion. Maybe some clips, but I don't want something that'll take my hide off when I turtle. Any suggestions?
