ATTACHING THE ROD HOLDER
The locking rod holder(s) incorporate a locking tooth design which can be easily adjusted every 15° with the soft grip knob.
The symmetrical design will allow mounting of the rod holder on either side of the downrigger or two rod holders at the same
time. The unique two-piece design allows independent adjustment of the rod holder and the rod holder arm in two axes.
