How many fluke rods could you fish with reelapeelins setup?

BS, that all depends on several factors.

For drifting, if there's only one person in the boat I'm going to say a max of 3 rods before things just get too complicated.

If you got a buddy - and he has to be a fairly decent 1st mate - then you can comfortably fish 5 or six rods.

Now, if you're trollin - you better go with one rod per person, unless you've been blessed with a nice soft unobstructed sandy bottom. Making sure bait stays on and fresh, re-tying the ones that break, etc. are going to make thing less than enjoyable the more rod you have to worry about.

Just my .02.

Blue - 4 rods is the max that I ever fished solo.
When they all go off at once . . . I have too much trouble deciding which one to reel in first.
 
I have fished 4 myself and it's a blast. On multiple hook-ups, I try to quickly decide which has the biggest fish and leave the rest in the holders. Of course, you lose more than you catch! :-[
 
I started using circle hooks on my dead sticks two years ago and they hold the fish great when you are alone!!!

Now my dead sticks catch more fish then I do!!
 
There are 6 more for the bow when cut-baitin' starts in the spring...total of 12 w/a 7' MH rod and Garcia 6500 wide spool in each...when they hit it turns into a Chinese Fire Drill QUICK... ;D

Some of these guys have 20-24 for cut-baitin'...I guess anything worth doin' is worth OVERdoin'... ::)
