Some 3d printed fishing pole holders

These could easily be made by folding some sheet metal or countless other ways. But here's the stl's anyway if any one else could use these. 1/4 20 threads in the nut but are easily tapped to something else.

Reminds me of j-hooks i use at work to support cat6 cable

 

Cool idea.I like that it utilizes the factory rail system with the t-nuts. I’d need caged ones and not open j hook style. Rods would bounce out on the trails along the rivers out here.

 

Lots of folks around here use pieces of PVC and then just hook a rubber band around the rod to keep it from rattling and possibly damaging it. You can drill a hole through both sides so that you can put a mounting bolt or screw through one side then access it with a screwdriver through the other. I had two aluminum bars with holders for two rods on the inside of the shell on my last Tacoma; tried to find a picture but I don't have any on this computer. Redneck engineering.
