[cool]First of all, I'll resize that pic to 400 pixels wide for you.
Second of all, you got the right idea, for a rear mount. Now you have to rig a different piece of wood, to which you can screw one of those cheap/light PVC holders. Here's a front pic, from the Bass-n-Tubes photo board, on how some of the bassers do it.
I have already determined that the slots in the commercially made rod holders are just a bit narrow, but if you widen them in small increments, and keep trying your fly rod until it fits just right, I think you will find the slot will hold your fly rod just fine. I do something similar with regular PVC.
Let's keep working on it.
