Fishing rod holders act as an extra arm for anglers and help catch more fish. Basic rod holders have a base that mounts onto a boat. Features to look for include a flat mount and a holder that swivels. Anglers who fish several rods at once should look to a rod holder that accommodates several rods, which keeps all rods in one spot but allow the angler to spread baits over a wide area. Clamp-mount rod holders don’t require drilling and can be used on any boat that has a place to accommodate the clamp arms. Kayak anglers are well served by track-mount rod holders, because the holder can be moved to various places along the track, which often is necessary when current or wind changes.
