So it looks like this will be my pier cart for this year. 48 quart cooler on wheels. Found it on sale at Home Depot while returning something for a refund. Got a bass pro back pack for all my tackle. Only downside is limited rod storage. Can hold one rod with the backpack and one in my hand. Will probably have to work on something that doesn't involve putting holes in the new cooler so I can have at least four. May take my surf spikes and zip tie them to the handle or something.

Just bolt some PVC rod holders on the ends. Or mount em on a milkcrate and bugie it on the cooler!!!!just be sure and get the milk crate that is emblazoned " thou shall not steal",

One trip to the pier this year, I used a similar rolling cooler. I strapped my bucket and tackle pack to the top and carried 4 rods in one hand, pulled the cooler with the other. It worked.
But better advice is to attached 2 rod holders to each side!Carl

I’ll be sliding into town March 10-14. Can you have it warm and sunny for me then? And also, how about having the fish biting??? :D
