I'm looking to add two more rod holders I can use for trolling, for a six rod spread. All fishing is ocean and we do get some pelagics. Any ideas? Can you guys show me what you have done? Thanks. Adam

I added two rod holders, clamp-ons to the handrails on either side of the motor well. They are pretty handy.
 
Adam,
Not sure if yours has the hardtop or not? I do, and regularly troll 9 rods off of mine, but I also have the hardtop with two Lee's mounted on the rails going up the back. I put in two 15 degree mounts in the back of the transom. Behind them I have flat line clips to keep my baits at a better angle to the Ocean. Let me know if you need any pics or got questions.

2 rod holders mounted on the side rail next to the helm on both sides, on about a 30 degree angle up..those are for my outriggers, then you have 2 more per gunwale, and on the left coast we run meatlines off the back cleats.....potentially 8, but I run 4 rods and 2 meatlines. I don't know what you are fishing for.....I use this set up for tuna.

Good point, I forgot to mention that I also have clamp on holders on the rails next to the helm in addition to two on the motor well hand rails. So with the factory 4, I have a total of 8 holders
