Default garage rod holders

Well, xmas came early for me in the form of rod storage. I already had some rod storage in my garage, but wasn't crazy about it because what I did have was scratching my bigger rods. So, my wife's grandfather who I swear could build a house with a hammer and a couple of nails, came by and took some measurements. He listened to what I wanted and this is the finished product. He even put gimbal locks in the butt holes. The first couple pics are my old rod holders. They will now become my surf fishing rod holders. The new one will be my offshore rod holders.

I told him the exact same thing. I looked for a couple of weeks trying to find a professional one that I could hang up. They don't make any that are durable or inexpensive.

LMAO!!! Good one Daddy'O !!!!

I agree they are some nice looking rod holders. They would look really nice in my garage Looks like I know what I will be doing next winter when the fishing has fallen off here.
