1 inch pvc with 4 way connectors. My subaru forester has tie down hooks in the roof in the back that I attached it to bit I've seen people use rack that is meant for hanging clothes that you can extend and wedge between the sides of the vehicle. I then used a bungee that attaches to the handles on the roof of the car. I have room to put 7 rods comfortably. My 7 ft rods hit the sun visor so I imagine anything bigger then that would be hard to fit, (in a subaru foresterbur anyways) but 7ft is manageable.

Perfect. I finally learned this after hooking many and just cutting the line. I just think a more info could be helpful. I always heard that touching the gills can really hurt a fish. So I'm always really careful when trying to get the hook through the gills. And also, what to do if you still cannot get the hook out. I've caught a few fish that have been gut hooked with the hook still in the gut or and some that have the hook that has worked itself out and halfway out of the gills. Also if in a tournament, if a fish is hooked in the gill and the hook cannot be removed, will that effect the weigh in? I know hooks this size aren't going to change the weight of a fish but could that possibly disqualify the fish from the weigh-in?
