I mounted a strip of velcro under each side of the clips and used it to hold the rods on the yak in case of a spill...with these clips you can put the butt of one rod in each clip and the tip of the rod in the small clip on the side, and you can bundle a couple of other rods along side of the original two and hold em on with the velcro strips.

Nice, I like this method alot. Thanks for sharing.
