I have a small boat and decided after fishing day in day out and not catching anything i would give them a try. I have an issue however. The rod holders are so slippery on inside and so small that i am afraid i am going to lose my rods. I have about 300.00 into each rod and don't want that. I am going to make some lines that will secure the rods to the holders in case they come out of holders. I was wondering if anyone knows where i can get inserts for the tubes. Something like foam or rubber to tighten up the rod holders so they wont come out so easy.

Re: Scotty Mini Lakers

You might want to try some snap on foam pipe insulation that they sell Home Depot and Lowes. Tape it to the butt of your rod and stuff it into the holder.

Something else you may want to consider is, if your rod butt is fairly longer than your holder is deep... you can drill out or cut off the bottom of the holder so more of your rod will fit into the holder.
