Without a doubt, Lee’s Tackle’s swivel base rod holder is the ultimate rod holder for the serious sportsman. It’s primarily designed for bent butt tackle where the rod needs to rotate freely rather than staying locked at a fixed angle.
The unique swivel base lets the rod butt rotate in the holder when side pressure hits the tip. This is an indispensable feature especially important in giant bluefin tuna fishing, where reel drags in the neighborhood of 60 pounds are common and could otherwise snap a rigid holder or damage the rod.
At 2.25″ O.D. by 10.5″ tube, this vertical size at 0 degrees is built for vertical bent-butt rod placement. It’s a proven design trusted by tournament anglers who need the holder to move with the fish rather than fight against it. See what else we carry in rod holders.
