I wish I had pics of my first setup but here's my best attempt to describe it...
It was just like brwntrt's in that I had bungee cords between the child restraints in the back and across the rear passenger handles. I went to the hardware store and bought some of that foam pipe insulation you wrap around plumbing pipes. I cut it to fit the width of the bungee between the passenger seat handles. I then drilled a 1/4" hole through the foam just above halfway on the foam. I then took a razor blade and cut a slit in the top of the foam so the rod could slide in. This way the rod would rest just above the reel on the rear-most bungee and then "snap" into place on the foam and keep it from bouncing around. It worked great and kept my 9' fly rod in place though it did bend a little when it touched the windshield but no permanent damage. I love my G. Loomis
