ABSTRACT:
A fishing rod carrier for use in a vehicle cab interior bounded in-part by a vehicle cab roof is provided for receiving a plurality of fishing rods having a handle at one end and a rod tip at the opposite end, and includes first and second carrier members. Each carrier member includes a first flexible non-elastomeric elongated strap having first and second ends. A second flexible elastomeric elongated strap is coupled to the first strap at selected locations but otherwise uncoupled to the first strap, and forms a plurality of elastomeric loops along the length of the first strap. Each loop defines a clearance of preselected dimensions between the first and second straps. A means is provided for releasably coupling the first and second ends of the first strap to the vehicle cab roof. The first and second carrier members are spaced apart a selected distance and positioned substantially parallel along the vehicle cab roof with the handle of each of the plurality of fishing rods disposed in one of the plurality of loops on one carrier member and with the tip of each of the plurality of fishing rods disposed in the corresponding loop in the opposite carrier member.
