Rigging and Review my X-13 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I love the way you've rigged your X-13. I don't have the stones to do the transducer through the bottom, but I'll probably steal the idea of the concave bait tank lid. I also like to troll with my rods in front of me. I tried using the Mini-X flush mounts, but they were way too far forward and too low to the water. It is also a pain to actually troll 2 live or rigged baits for kings, tarpon, etc because you don't use weight and any pause in paddling tends to get the lines fouled up so with my X-13 I'll just be using the single rod holder mounted in the center console with a height extender. Plus I'm not sure what I'd do with 2 big offshore fish going nuts in a kayak at the same time!

I like my Mango boat, but I loved the Lime Green that they had at another shop.
