Dead center of the boat, right in front of the console I have about a 3x2' bay opening for sliding in fishing rods / nets / etc, has a nice mount for holding rods in there, etc- I'm sure you're familiar...

Water doesn't seem to want to drain out of there- I can pump a hose through it and out the back by turning on the bilge pump, but it doesn't seem to 'suck' anything from that bay.
If it overfills, it will drain out, but there is always "some" standing water in there- is this normal operation? I really don't feel good storing my rods where there is 'always' water present, especially salt... I washed the boat today and it was near full.
