Overview

A hands-free rod holder that clips onto any belt or strap from 1 to 2 inches wide and rotates 360 degrees, built for fly and spinning rods with an elastic cord to cinch the rod in place.

  • 360 degree rotating lock
  • Fits belts 1 to 2 inches wide
  • Elastic cord with quick-access hooks
  • Made in the USA

Who it's for

Suits wading and boat anglers who need both hands free mid-fight or between casts, especially fly fishers tying flies or changing tippet on the water. Less useful for anglers who never set a rod down hands-free, since it does add some bulk to a belt.

What buyers say

From Amazon customer reviews.

Fly anglers are the clearest fans here, repeatedly describing it as freeing up both hands to tie on flies, net fish, or hold a second rod while wading, with multiple reviewers reporting years of trouble-free use. The main gripe is that it adds bulk to a belt, and one reviewer flagged the need to watch for fly line tangling around the holder while casting.

Performance notes

The 360 degree rotation and unlock button let you angle the rod up or down for storage or quick access, while the elastic cord with hooks cinches down to keep the rod from bouncing loose while moving. It clips onto belts or straps 1 to 2 inches wide, covering most wading belts and pack straps.
