    Default Rod holder angle


    Ok now shopping for 6 rod holders.
    Hills rod holders are looking very good for the price.
    Comes in 0 to 5 degrees
    Or 30 to 35 degrees

    No way on the drift masters.

    I would like adjustable myself without breaking the bank.


    What degree is most common for cranking or spiderrigging?

    spider rigging, I like my rod tips about a foot above the water. Cranking, the back rods are horizontal to the water, the middle rods angled up a little and the front poles angled above the middle rods.

    I was on his boat once and his had 2 holders on a rod. To adjust the angle you had to twist the whole rod which moved both holders the same angle. You couldnt adjust each one separately.

    Ok I didn't buy the whole apparatus...
    I'm just buying the holders themselves, and putting them on my apparatus.
    Which isn't adjustable.
    That's why I got the dual position rod holders with 3/8 thread.
    I'll bolt them permanently to my bar.

    This is my square stock that will slide into my rear seat post and I'll drill 3/8 holes and bolt them solid.
    But stuck with about 5 degree or 35 degree which ever slot I put them in.Name:  image.jpg
