Wait for it..................
I'll take 2.
I'll be trying them out next week on the pier. If they work okay i plan on making more.
Interesting idea to get a rod off the deck. Might want a (velcro?) safety strap to keep someone from bumping the butt and letting the rod take a high dive since the center of gravity is past the rail. At some piers/bridges, I'd clamp it to my cart and have the cart near the rail. St. Joseph Michigan jetty, with no rail, or Indian River Inlet, DE, come to mind for that.
With a rod clamped in the middle and driven into the ground/sand, it would also be a nice bank stick for catfish and such. Heck, even a boat, with a non-marring clamp. A very versatile idea.
I am sure you measured the rail, but there is only a 1.5 to 2 inch lip on the inboard side of the rail cap.

They are 2" square. I guessed the rail to be a standard 2x8 that would make it an 1 3/4 I think.
Best pic I have seen of the inboard. Thanks.
I would hate to be fighting a fish down the rail and run into that....only being able to fish 1 rod on the pier, I like holding mine for the bite and hook set
It does not look like the design will work for a spinning rod and reel?

looks like I will be making more.
It looks like a winner to me!!!! I'll take one but I won't be down there until the 1st week in Jan. Can you make one by that time? How many pennies will I have to have? flyguyQuote:

It was probable a good thing that you didn't give the 2 guys one pier rod holder, the other guy may have thrown you over the rail. I have to say, the price was right!!! flyguyQuote:
