Any New Porty Mods yet?

[leech~~]

Let's see some "New porty mods" if anyone has started them yet! Yes i've already looked at the old posts about 10 times already! Like reading an old book over again!

I going to do the "Re-install Canvas" mod in a couple of weeks.

Seriously, though, I am going to look into some options for my Frabill Recon that I got this spring. Simple and light; that's for sure. A couple of rod holders/sleeves, better seat option, Reflectix, and divider tray/bungies to keep things from moving around. Nothing too crazy/heavy.

Simple carpeted deck with dividers underneath and rod holders. Still need to rig lights. The wheeler holds the auger.

For anybody looking for a nice rod holder, Frabill has a nice one that me and a buddy both picked up from Gander this weekend.

It mounts to the metal bracket of your flip over shack and has a pivot arm that essentially allows you to move the rod any direction you want, rather then being limited to one position like many holders.

It also is nice because you don't have to bend over and grab your pole from off the ground like some other types of rod holders. Your pole is kept at waist level and is very easy to get in and out of the holder. I believe it was $10 or $15...kind of pricey, but one of the nicest holders I've came across so far.

I think the rod holders you are talking about are from otter and yes they look nice. I have had my eye on them for this year. I looked all year last year and couldn't find anything that I thought was very nice till I found these this summer on otter HSOforum.

How can I add pictures to my post? On the left of this box I'm typing in it says, HTML is disabled. I don't even know what UBBCode is.

MinnGuy, that is a great job! I love that MOD. if i get a nicer portable I may have to copy some of that

For now, I have a old Frabill Unltra Lite one man, with a few tears in the canvas. Not too worried about the tears, but was wondering how one goes about doing the reflectix mod. I think I saw some at a Big Box hardware store....

Do you people that have done it feel the difference, and how would I go about doing it? Also, I would like to see more pics too (dont wanna highjack this good post )

I added Reflectix last year to my portable and I just installed it on two other fish houses last weekend. If you do an advanced search on Reflectix you will see the photos I posted last year (it was in a green Eskimo).
