Default Fishing Pole Holders, Need pics!

I'm heading out to the outer banks in a month, and I want to either buy or build a salt water pole holder to either mount on the front bumper, or in the bed of my truck. I don't want anything permanent. I just need to see what other people have made or bought, and how much it cost them to build/buy. I'm leaning toward making one for in my bed, but I want to get some ideas from what others have done. Post up some pics of your set-ups!

I built a pvc pipe rack that unbolts for easy remove but its in my 4runner. I don't like the idea of poles in the front, anything like a locust or any kind of debris can come by and snap a rod.. I spend to much on my equipment to risk it like that. I contemplated making the same rack with the option to lay it down in the pick up, but haven't made it yet

Yeah, I'm not wild about the idea of putting them on the front bumper either, just wanted to see if anyone came up with something better than your traditional style. I like the bed idea cause I can easily move it out of the way. I've seen some pics from googling, but I want to see what F150 owners have done

Try a search in Google images for truck bed fishing rod rack. There are plenty of pictures there.
