Quick take
An 18 in spike rod holder for securing rods in sand during beach and surf fishing.
This 18-inch ground spike rod holder pairs an injection-molded HDPE tube with an aluminum sand stake, aimed at beach and surf fishing. The tube has a 1 3/4 inch inside diameter and a UV-resistant black finish. Push the stake into sand or soft ground to park a rod while you rig up, wait on a bite or watch the surf.
