The rod holder in the gunnel the screws have pulled out.Putting bigger screws will not work.What should I do to correct this?

Drill the holes out a 1/4 to 5/16in larger. Fill the holes with epoxy/cabisol mix. Redrill the holes to the proper size for your screws.

Thanks for the advise I will give it a try.Pulled thr mako out today to blast and paint the bottom and get her looking good to catch some fish.

Do what warthog said and I would use bolts instead of wood screws. You can cut a backing plate to go under the gunnel for extra support. If you troll from your gunnel mount rod holders then they should not pull out again using this method.
