I copied this idea and made one of these the other day. I modified it a bit so I could leave my reel attached to my rod and just clamped my rod to a piece of 1 inch pvc that I cut in half. I pinched one end of the pvc with pliers and forced it into a 3/4" fitting. It holds really well and I don't have to mess around wtih taking a rod apart and if I want to take my rod off the stand while I am fishing I still can.
Thanks for the idea whoever posted it the first time. I copied the pictures and then had some fun with it. I am going to make one out of 1/2" pvc to make it a little smaller and lighter. I'll let you know when I'm done and I'll take a picture of them just for fun.
Do you have any problems with the rod holder falling over when you get a really good fish biting?? I would love to have a fish on the line big enough to give me some serious problems with this rod holder.
