Best Way to Attach a Milk Crate? #9978654 05/12/14 10:11 PM OP Outdoorsman Joined: Mar 2014 Posts: 27 I need some ideas on how to attach my finished milk crate to my yak. I have a 9.5� Featherlite and I want to put the crate in front of me. Obviously bungees will work but I am wanting something more along the lines of a track system. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Does your kayak have flush mount rod holders behind the seat? If you're wanting a track system then I'd look at YakAttack. "Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium.

I would suggest maybe thinking about a soft bag up front with most of your commonly needed items and then storing the "just in case" stuff in bags and shoving under the front deck - that is what I do with my sinks - made a simple platform and bungee the bag to it. I can't imagine working around a crate in the front but maybe I am not getting your idea. Re: Best Way to Attach a Milk Crate?

Clips on the top to clip in my rod for when I am tying on a new lure. The hinged door has plexiglass on it so it's flat and a workable surface. No rod holders, I have two flush holders behind me. I am putting plier holders on the side though. I don't think that the crate will impede my casting/paddling too much. Since this is such a small yak this will be about all I put on it. Thanks for all the ideas and input. I appreciate it. Re: Best Way to Attach a Milk Crate?

That's how I attach my tackle tray to the bottom of my Native Ultimate 14.5. You can buy pretty wide velcro. After one full season last year and some outings this year, the velcro shows no sign of loosening. Re: Best Way to Attach a Milk Crate?

Then I'd start thinking the milk crate is for milk not kayak fishing tackle and work up someting that slips inside the sit in. I know guide that fishes with a pocket full of jig heads and a couple packets of Glulp baits. Maybe you really don't need all that stuff.
