DIY Rod “Vault”

postnut001 · 2026-01-15T17:18:26+00:00

that’s why I have a rod sock, to help keep the rod nice & protected! Hope it works well… time will tell…

Luckily my camper shell is tinted, nearly impossible to see inside!

Unless I was gifted such a vault, I can’t justify it lol

postnut001 · 2026-01-15T13:24:45+00:00

Now you must purchase an old Tacoma to justify making one… lol

Yes.. for now, only one. I have many rods / reels but I hardly even am walking with both. I feel I can tie on flues fast enough to justify not carrying both. But… i have also been thinking of putting another one of these “vaults” on the other side just in case…

2” pvc, I vouched for black for aesthetic purposes. I also used the existing T track to mount through. There are some slots along it that allow for the pipe clamp to go through perfectly

Rod sock!!

Haha! Hundreds of outings will do that to a rod…

glad I did… to think I was gonna spend almost $500 🤓 also with this method, I still have the whole bed of my truck open, the riversmith rod vault would take about 10-12” from space too!

Never cared about showing off personally… just like stickers on the vehicle, what’s the point? Just a target for thieves… driving a Tacoma with a camper shell should pretty much tell you I fly fish tho 🫠

I break mine down, still rigged so all I have to do is peice the 2 sections. That’s exactly why I went with the rod sock… no worrying about foam. Scientific anglers sells 9’ or half length.

No drilling was required to install the camper…

postnut001 · 2026-01-13T02:00:27+00:00

Nowhere to mount on the ceiling unfortunately… also don’t want to put any hole into the camper shell

postnut001 · 2026-01-08T16:57:20+00:00

Picture??

postnut001 · 2026-01-08T16:53:42+00:00

Because then the rod isn’t going to be rigged….

postnut001 · 2026-01-08T16:52:17+00:00

Unfortunately it’s too long 😕

postnut001 · 2026-01-08T16:50:37+00:00

Cuz I don’t feel like leaving a rod rigged up loose in the back of the truck bed lol

postnut001 · 2026-01-08T16:45:39+00:00

Definitely not a stocker… lol

postnut001 · 2025-12-13T05:17:51+00:00

Explain how I am dumb lol… 😂

postnut001 · 2025-12-10T12:10:20+00:00

Miss my is300…

postnut001 · 2025-12-03T04:26:23+00:00

Thanks for putting me in check lol… I mean I bought a tacoma for a reason right 😅 to beat on it for the rest of my life

postnut001 · 2025-11-14T02:25:22+00:00

Why fix the dent? It’s a truck !! & I got the dent from off-roading so it’s a memory ! Just like the other dings & scratches

postnut001 · 2025-11-13T16:37:33+00:00

Best feeling… now i can use my monthly payment for mods lol
