Loving your truck tunaslayer. Imo your living the good ole American dream fishing for living and having a nice truck lol. I fish all the time and strive to do it for a living. Moving to Florida soon and already got a 23' Carolina skiff waiting on me to hit the flats. Stupid question though I've been thinking about exterior mods I can do to my truck that would let people know I'm a fisherman if that doesn't sound too stupid? Any ideas?

Thats awesome dude. A good friend of mine sold his charter fishing business here and moved down to FL. He's now running charters for tarpon, snook, etc with a flats boat. As for the fishing mods, I like to promote the industries I fish as much as I can so I slapped an EAT LOBSTER sticker and a tuna sticker on the rear windows. The rod racks def let people know though...why don't you buy one! Haha jk.

I'm movin right across the street from the banana river in the mosquito lagoon area an hour south of Daytona Beach. Been there several times to visit family ended up fishing the whole time with my uncle and hardly seen the rest of them lol...Going down there and catching reds, trout, grouper, snapper, snook, ladies and permit is a whole another story from largemouth and what not up here in Kansas. I would love to have a rod rack but i got a tonneau cover and something about putting a bunch of gloomis and allstar rods out in the open like that scares me. Ive been looking around to find some stickers but have yet to find any that i like. I wouldn't mind putting on all the manufacture stickers on there that have red in em to match the truck, Rapala, manns, doa, outlaw, etc if you get the point but have yet to find them for sale!

The rod racks sit below the bed caps by about 2" and I'm making them so you can have a cable lock them to the rack. Just doing a little self promotion though . You can always design your own sticker with an online decal shop and have them make it in whatever color you want. I did that with the Smith & Wesson sticker. Couldn't find what I wanted so I had a shop that was licensed to make the Smith & Wesson in whatever color/size I wanted then had another place just make Protected that I put underneath.
