Crab pot mount to kayak?

Made an “H” out of 3/4in pvc. Fits into the rear scupper holes in my hobie oasis. I can stack 2 cages + 2 traps, bungeed down.

Looks good...

I use the Danielson pots. I take all 4 stacked flat and strapped down on the bow . It helps that I have a dry box bolted down in the cockpit that also serves as a forward seat when accessing gear on the bow. I keep the bait jars and the coil/buoys behind me in the milk crate. They are pretty easy to set up and collapse on the water once you get the hang of it.

Thanks really easy I was using pvc from old water system we had at the yard  re-purposed for crab hoop stand...  if anybody needs PVC pipe got a couple hundred feet that could be used I’ll supply the hacksaw!!! LoL

Saturday I’ll see if it works with the wet test see you on the 💦 .   

That'll hold some pots for sure. I like how it follows the contours of the revo, Lookin good.

I use the back for 2 box pots assembled, front for 3 hoops... Yesterday, when I went to attach it the cross bar popped off LoL so I drilled a few more holes for more zip ties!!! Solid now... can’t wait to try it sat... cya OTW

This my crab/lobster pot mount for Hobie Oasis.  I made it out of 1/2" PVC and able to disassemble easily for storage.
After I load pots, I use two bungees to strap them down.

Your rig looks great, but I wouldn't recommend strapping them down.  If you roll, it may prevent you from being able to correct the kayak.  Also, if the traps are unstrapped and they fall from the kayak, the buoys are free to float, so you may be able to recover them if the line doesn't get tangled.   Just a thought.

Thank you for your safety tip.

That was something i learned this past weekend!  Also dont put the floats and line inside the cages. If you do that and loose them the floats are trapped. If you stack on-top of them, the float will stay on the surface and you have a shot at recovering your gear.
