    Default For those of you that own/use Driftmaster rod holders


    For those of you that own/use Driftmaster rod holders how do you like them?

    Are they easy to get the rods out?

    Are they easy to adjust?

    Do they stay in place after you set them they way you want?


    I mainly long line troll and run four sets. I don't like my current rod holders and am looking at the Driftmaster.

    Any input?

    If I mounted them on a flat surface, I'd use the Tite-lok.

    If I mounted them on a round bar, I'd use Driftmaster. You can quickly adjust the Driftmaster by twisting it around the bar.

    Otherwise they stay in place and are easy to get the rods out.

    Just my opinion.

    I have the Tite-Lok and don't like them at all.

    I want something else

    Default Driftmaster set the benchmark

    Driftmaster has been around for awhile while others have come and gone. They are versatile, strong, and the T-Bar Trollers are easily adjustable. The T-250 models were designed by tournament crappie fishermen. They adjust easily and hold well enough to stand up to striped bass, catfish, and stumps as well as crappie. You also don't have to worry about your rod coming out like some others on the market. I know I sound like a commercial but I use them (and have for years) as well as sell them. If you have a question feel free to call or e-mail me for any specifications. I will tell you the truth whether I make a sale or not.

    I currently use both DriftMaster and HiTek rod holders and prefer the HiTeks. They are easily adjustable in any direction and are very sturdy. They also can be removed quick and easy from their mounting plate.

    The HiTeks are the absolute best......these bad boys are tournament grade for sure! I have used several different brands in the past and don't want to badmouth any of them but I was never satisfied until I found the HiTeks. If you don't like what they have on the site, Scott Echols will build whatever you have in mind and it will be very well built, sturdy and economical......adjustment in all directions is simple.
