Catch More Fish With Boat Rod Holders

By Robert Cliford


You may be asking yourself why you would ever need a boat rod holder. Well, the first thing that comes to mind is that if you want to catch fish, but don't enjoy being welded to your rod all day, a rod holder might just come in handy. They help to free up your hands so that you can walk about the boat, get a bite to eat, or just lean back and enjoy the day knowing that your rod is not going to be yanked into the lake without you knowing something has just grabbed hold of the bait.

You may not be aware of it, but a tiny fish can exhibit the strength to drag your rod into the water when it is merely leaned against the boat. That's right, and you don't want to lose expensive equipment or spoil your day, do you. One simple piece of fishing equipment is all it takes to save many anglers the frustration of losing a rod and the money it takes to replace them.

If you are not sure what a rod holder is, listen to this. It is a tool that attaches to the side of the boat which allows you to place your rod in the correct position for catching fish without having to hold it all the time. Some even attach to the boats bottom, but anglers enjoy working with them because they allow them to practice several techniques at once.

There is an upper portion of a boat rod holder on which the rod rests, and a lower portion which catches the rod and prevents it from going any further over and into the water. This is a great option for fishers who enjoy relaxing but want to be able to get to the rod before the fish get away.

All you have to do is lift the rod up and out of the holder when it is time to start working the fish. If you have ever wondered why some fishermen or women seem to catch all the fish, maybe you should take a look at the boats they use. There may be rod holders in place It is possible your answer lies there. Anglers that are savvy know they have to work smarter not harder at this game.

There are other advantages to using this equipment and one of those is that you are not as likely to get your lines tangled the way that often happens when those lines get scattered around the boat. Just think about how much more you are going to enjoy the experience when you take your rod holders along on your next fishing tackle trip. You'll be able to relax a bit more, move around and work those kinks out, or just go get a nice drink or sandwich out of the cooler without worrying that a fish will take your rod.
