Scotty Gear Head Track Adapter 438

great product, works good

Great compact unit for specific uses. Will be used for a starboard track rod holder or camera / light pole holder anywhere. Not for port side rod holder.

Great adapter

Works great! I really like being able to slide the rod holder back and forth depending on what I am doing.

I bought this adapter for the track on the front console of a new Loon 126 angler kayak. It works as it's supposed to however the track on the kayak is plastic. Therefore, the mount isn't entirely secure, wobbles, and so forth. I wouldn't use a rod holder and troll with it. I do, however, place my rod in the holder when I'm not fishing. It works great for that and would presumably be ideal for a Go-Pro camera, or something like that.

Awesome! WORKS LIKE A CHARM!

Does what it's supposed to. I used it for the Gear Track to Scotty baitcaster holder. The only issue I had was with the nut that loosens/tightens the connection to the track. The nut came all the way tightened and when I would try and loosen it it would just spin. THis probably wouldn't have been an issue had I had the right tools, but instead I had to be pretty acrobatic using two pairs of needle nosed pliers

Does what it is supposed to do. I like that it give a little more security than the traditional mount from Scotty.

Does exactly what it says. Great lock feature to keep your gear safe. Endless possibilities of equipment by Scotty way to go!!

Good product

Nice to have an accessory mount that is small and able to use different gadgets.

Worked great for a unique set up. I mounted this to a rear track on my Wilderness Systems Tarpon 120 to hold a battery powered stern light. The light is easily removable and the base is low enough profile. Did a similar set up for a bow light using a Scotty Deck mount and Mini Rod Holder Extender to mount a nav light.

Terrible for trolling nearly lost a $900 setup when I took a strike on very light drag but it didn't take much for the square bolt to shear. Luckily I was in 60 ft. And my friend was able to dive down to retrieve it. Part of it was my fault for not leashing my rod but I don't think a product thats holding your rod should break under light load. Never using again.

Adapter works really well with a track system. Ability to slide up & down the track to fit your needs. Quick release of the rod holder is a big plus.

Works great, fit my Eddyline rail.

Easy way to add a second Scotty style holder to my Yak. I can now use the original holder for a fish finder and the new one for a rod.

Took this out for the first time in mt Wilderness Ride 115X and it was perfect for trolling

Typical very good Scotty build quality. Fits great on Wildy tracks, BUT Not quite strong enough for trolling - especially on the port side. Using Scotty Baitcaster rod holders, no matter how strongly I tightened it (as tight as possible without being stupid and risking damage), it wasn't tight enough to stay put. Using a light action 7 foot spinning rod with 6lb line, even with a light drag setting, the torque was enough to rotate the mount rearward before the drag would give line. Not as bad on the starboard side, because the torque worked to TIGHTEN the mount- but I didn't feel it was a strong enough mount to trust for any fishing tough enough for medium action freshwater tackle and light line. For trolling (bass, GL trout and steelhead, etc) I will be staying with "standard" Scotty 241 mounts on my rails. They are bombproof. These 438's will be great for rodholders used for still fishing, small fish such as panfish or stocked trout, and for things like light mounts or camera mounts, anything which does not require a great amount of strength. I bought two, and I'm sure they will find homes on my kayaks, just not for quick-release trolling rod holders as I had hoped.

This is the second track adapter I have purchased. They are great for use with the slide tracks!

Works great with by Slayer 13

this is the way to go! forget ram ball mounts (they move a lot when hit) so satisfied with this adapter. it is substantially well built for scotty products. i have both ram and scotty products and scotty is the way to go! i use it on my 2014 pro angler

Got 2 of these for my rod holders to use on my Tarpon 100 which are much better than the big rectangular Harmony mounts. So easy to put on or take off the kayak & if you want to slide it closer to you or farther away it is so simple to do, just turn it to loosen it, slide it to where you want it and tighten back up.

Scotty hit a home run with the Gear Head Track Adapter. They work excellent on the YakAttack Gear Tracks and make for very easy removal of any Scotty products that fit into the regular base.

Just beginning to enjoy this, hadn't seen anywhere for my boat, Glad you had available

Easy off and on and I can change sides with it in seconds. Sturdy and well thought out.

EXCELLENT !!!! Wish I would have purchased 3-or-4 right from the start !! Highly Recommended & Will be purchasing more for sure!! :-D

Easiest, inexpensive, and all around best way to add a rod holder to any yack with a track system! If your buying a wilderness systems yak with a track system like I did..get a couple of these and use the Scotty baitcaster rod holder without mount 279 and boom you got some awesome rodholders that can be positioned however you want them!

Love the compactness and ease of use for a Scotty rod holder mount. makes the rod holder even more accessible on the Kayak. Keeps the Fishing Rods literally at your fingertips or out of the way in a second.

Works exactly as described! Goes on the bottom of your Scotty holder and attaches to your track. Great alternative to drilling holes in your kayak. Highly recommend!

Works as advertised on a wilderness systems tarpon with factory tracks. A very good product.

A very nifty item, it slid right into the track on my Native Ultimate. It saved having to use a larger Scotty deck mount, and I like that I can take it right off for a clean and uncluttered look. I was worried that it might not be secure enough, but it grips very well.

used the track adapter once and the nut inside "stripped" now the adapter is us useless

Excellent product, ACK is the best online yak store out there.

screw down too tight. Difficult to use

It works really slick and takes up minimal room. you'll need something like the extension arm to really put the torque on it needed to lock it in place.

Not as simple as Scotty makes it seem

Works as advertised. Great service by ACK!

awesome product. awesome service, and awesome people!!!

Finally! a compact track adapter that will fit at the very front of the rear slidetrax on my Wildy Tarpon. Now I can have my rods in much better positions while trolling and still be able to turn them to the back when traveling. The narrow "T" bolts turn sideways and lock securely in the slidetrax. The mounts might benefit from the addition of a YakAttack FullBack Backing Plate to provide a wider mounting surface.

Works as planned. Saves alot of Slidetrax rail space

I mounted these to my 16" Geartrac rails which are mounted to the side rails of my Pro Angler. Drop in the Scotty Rod holders and you have a great trolling set up!
