Quick take

A dual rod spreader that increases fishing line spread from boat gunnel holders, angled for proper trolling setup.

This Glide Gear dual offset spreader is an aluminum surface-mount holder that widens the spread from rod holders already on your gunnel. The slight angle helps set rod and line placement for trolling. I-beam pins in the base let rods drop in and lock in place. It measures 1.75" D x 13.75" W x 16" H and comes as a set of two.
