Let's see your rod holder spread

What about a swivel up in the bow? That seems to be popular with the tuna guys

These are all 30 deg. rod holders. Set at 0 deg., 15 deg., and 30 deg. from the gunnel center line. I don't use any bent butt rods so these work better than 0 deg. for me. I use this setup for tuna and striper trolling and chunking and it works fine. I don't fish for giant bluefin or I would have 0 deg. swivel holders and bent butt 80s and 130s instead of 30s and 50s. Depends on how you intend to use your boat. Good luck.

What I like is the Hal-Lock clip. Those are really nice.
