Help with Thule ski rack..

Question

Question:

I recently purchased a rhino rack vortex for my Ram 1500. I also have a Thule 725 ski rack that has the fm 1 fat mouth clamps. They do not seem to fit the rhino rack. Do they make larger clamps that can go onto the rack? I use the rack to transport fishing rods.
