Attwood Marine Heavy Duty Adjustable Rod Holder, 180° Vertical Adjustment, For Casting and Spinning Rods

Overview

The Attwood Marine Heavy Duty Adjustable Rod Holder is an adjustable boat rod holder for bait casting and spinning reels, with a 180 degree vertical adjustment range that helps set rod tip height for trolling, drifting, or keeping a rig ready in the cockpit.

This range includes combo-mount and flush-mount versions in black or white, so the same holder style can be matched to different mounting locations and boat finishes. The rapid-release latch and large lock-nut keep adjustment straightforward when the boat is moving and the rod needs to come out quickly.

Key features

• Works with bait casting and spinning reels for common inshore, freshwater, and light boat-fishing setups.
• 180 degree vertical adjustment range lets the rod tip sit higher or lower to match the fishing position.
• Rapid-release latch helps the rod come out quickly when it is time to set the hook or clear the cockpit.
• Large easy-grip lock-nut makes angle adjustment easier with wet hands or gloves.
• Available with Combo Mount or Flush Mount hardware, depending on whether the installation calls for an above-surface mount or a lower-profile mounting base.
• Black and white color options help the holder blend with darker trim, white fiberglass, or existing deck hardware.

Variants

This product is offered in four configurations. The holder style remains the Heavy Duty Adjustable Rod Holder, while the mount style and color change by variant.

Combo Mount versions fit installations where the mount sits above the surface and can be positioned for side or pedestal-style mounting. Flush Mount versions keep the mounting base lower against the selected surface. The color choice is mainly visual, with black matching darker hardware and white matching many fiberglass decks and consoles.

• 5009-4: Combo Mount, Black. This configuration pairs a black holder with the Combo Mount for mounting locations where the base can sit above the surface.
• 5014-4: Flush Mount, Black. This configuration pairs a black holder with the Flush Mount for a lower-profile mount location on a suitable flat surface.
• 5009W4: Combo Mount, White. This configuration pairs a white holder with the Combo Mount for lighter decks, consoles, or cockpit trim.
• 5014W4: Flush Mount, White. This configuration pairs a white holder with the Flush Mount for a lower-profile look on light-colored mounting areas.

Installation and setup

Mount the holder where the rod can clear rails, cleats, upholstery, engine controls, and walkways through the full adjustment range. The mounting surface should be flat and solid enough for fishing loads, with fasteners and backing selected for the boat construction.

Before drilling, check the rod angle with the reel installed so the handle, rod butt, and line path have enough clearance in both running and fishing positions. For flush-mount versions, confirm the required mounting depth and cutout against the actual mount before installation.

Compatibility and use on board

This holder is a mechanical deck or cockpit accessory, so there are no voltage, NMEA 2000, NMEA 0183, or helm-network requirements to check. Fit depends on rod style, mounting surface, available clearance, and the selected mount type.

It suits anglers who need an adjustable holder for everyday bait casting or spinning gear on a fishing boat, pontoon, skiff, or small cruiser, especially where quick rod removal and a changeable rod angle matter more than a fixed holder position.
