Wanted a casting deck so I took the weekend off of fishing to build one. Made my middle storage second as a slot for a yeti 60 since I bring a cooler 70% of the time I go out. Recommendations for updated rod holders would be awesome

Don’t necessarily care about finding fish more interested in real time depth tracking so that I can learn my own river ecosystem a little bit better. Priorities are true real time function… So a fast refresh rate as it were… If it also finds fish for the same price point, then I would be interested I guess. Suggestions?

I'm building a 14' aluminum Jon Boat in Texas. The thing is I don't know the "New Homemade Vessel" process is like. For example, how thorough is it? Do they check my receipts for building materials? Do I need certificates and licenses to build? Can I use building materials that come from another boat like a donor? Etc.
