ABSTRACT:
A fishing rod holder for mounting on the inside wall of the gunwale of a boat. The holder includes a bracket which pivotably secures a ring that is used for extending over the handle of the rod for holding the rod in an inclined position over the side of the boat. A pair of vertically extending bores are provided in the bracket for receiving a pair of vertically extending laterally spaced legs forming part of a restrictive member. Outwardly projecting arms are integral with the upper ends of the laterally spaced legs which are joined by a U-shaped member. The legs are vertically adjustable within said bores for positioning a base portion of the U-shaped member a predetermined distance below the rod handle. The outwardly projecting arms of the restricting member prevent the rod from rotating in the holder responsive to a fish striking. The rod is permitted to be raised directly upwardly from the holder when a fish strikes so as to set the hook. When not in use, the rod holder can be readily disassembled and placed in a tackle box.
