Kayak Fishing Pole Holders

Johnathan and JT are back to talk all things Kayak Fishing Pole Holders. Rod holders for your kayak are a small and often overlooked accessory that plays a huge role in saving space and adding convenience to your fishing kayak. We discuss an array of fishing kayak pole holders including internal rod storage and fishing kayak accessory rail pole holders.

Despite their simplicity, there are still many factors to consider when deciding how you want to utilize rod holders. Questions to consider when deciding how you want to store your rods on you fishing kayak:

  • Do you fish in areas with overhanging debris?
  • Are you going to fish primarily sitting or standing?
  • Do you plan to paddle, pedal or use a motor?
  • Will you use a fishing crate behind your seat?
  • Are you planning to fish in tournaments?

Join Our Online Community of Anglers

It is easy to get wide eyes when dreaming of your perfect kayak setup. We see some of the craziest setups around in our line of work. But, those kinds of advanced setups with all the bells & whistles are not necessary for everyone. Sometimes, it is easier to take fellow kayakers' word for it rather than a retailers. That's why we created the Kayak Anglers Resource - a community of kayak anglers who share their experiences, ask questions and give honest reviews and assessments of kayaks and accessories. We can share our expertise until we are blue in the face, but a fellow anglers words often mean more.

Here a few great examples of how kayak anglers are helping other kayak anglers make better decisions on their purchases:
