ABSTRACT:
Storage devices allow for the efficient storage of objects which include a substantially cylindrical member such as a fishing rod. The storage device includes a support member which is coupled to a retaining member. The retaining member includes multiple protruding members positioned substantially perpendicular to the support member to form multiple tapered slots which can have openings of varying widths. The substantially cylindrical member of an object is inserted into the tapered slot to create a friction fit to retain the object in a substantially vertical position.
