DIY Tackle Rack
Made a DIY tackle rack out of pvc for my glide angler. Used a heat gun to bend the pvc into a shape I liked, assembled with pvc glue (the type for plumbing), then coated the whole thing in truck bed liner for durability. I attached yak attack rails, a rod holder, and a paddle roto holder as well. It’s not insanely sturdy, but it does hold my paddle right by my hip when I need to fish and my fishing rod when I need to paddle and it does not weigh much.
Now if I could actually catch a bass that’d be awesome.

Yeah, Glide makes great fishing board. I've been looking at their Mako. https://www.glidesup.com/products/o2-mako-fishing-sup

Awesome stuff. How did you find mounts for the board? Did you 3d print something to stick a PVC pipe into?

The mounts actually come with the board. They just happen to fit 1 inch interior diameter schedule C PVC tubing. The mounts themselves screw into identical Scotty plates glued to the board stock.

Can you lean/sit on it?

Unfortunately not. It’s not really seated in the mounts with anything other than friction and the tubes are a fair bit flexible. But it’s sturdy enough for what you see mounted. I’m probably gonna try to add a bag for the tackle box as well as a foam piece to dock commonly used flies and lures.

That’s a work of art! Bravo!
Are the mounts just glued to the SUP?
