A rod holder is a socket into which a fishing rod can be placed, avoiding the need to hold it in the hands. NauticExpo offers a wide variety of rod holders: adjustable, built-in, for canoes and kayaks, etc.
The rod holder supports the rod, allowing a single user to tend several at one time.
In its most basic form, the rod holder consists of a metal tube into which the rod handle slides. Some are metal or plastic with a swivel base.
Fishing pole dimensions will determine choice of rod holder.
