A Down-East Rod Holder is a clamp-style rod holder to put spinning, casting, and fly rods into while entertaining several horizontal and vertical mounting positions. The models include the original Down Easter rod holder, the D-11 Inboard Rod Holder, and the Down-East Salty Rod Holder. All rod holders are versatile, all-metal, made-in-the-U.S.A. construction that can withstand all kinds of weather, including any potential extreme cold temperatures.
The D-10 Down-East Standard Rod Holder is a portable clamp-style rod holder rated for light to moderate for fish up to 25 pounds and for use with line up to 30-pound test. There are no releases to unclip or undo. When a fish strikes, lift the rod straight from the holder. A D-11 Down-East Inboard Rod Holder can be permanently fastened to any vertical or horizontal surface on your boat. Its included D-12 Extension Bracket allows for proper height adjustment of the holder when bolted on a flat surface. Both the D-10 and D-11 models are not recommended for muskie fishing. On the other hand, a Down-East Salty S-10 Rod Holder is great for heavy fish up to 85 lbs. Always high-strength and corrosion-resistant, Down-East Rod Holders are built to exceed your greatest demands.
