bryantukkah - 9/25/2014 11:50 PM Cisco systems dipsy cradle holders with the chicken rings. All machined aluminum and stainless. Nothing to break or wear out. The rod can never come out of the rod holder... Ever. They rotate 360 degrees and have a mandible arm on them to tilt up and down super fast and wherever you want them to be. i through bolted them to my transom with 5/8" stainless hardware... you couldnt break, pull, or move them if you paid me to. Theyre really slick looking too, and they make a quick release mount for them, pull up on the knob and they slide right out with no loose parts to lose. Not the cheapest by any stretch but neither are the rods im using or the line, leader and baits theyre pulling. Ive seen down easters buckle and pop open and rods go in the drink before, especially if theyre angled down and backwards like i like to have them. Im not going to let it happen to me, especially when I'm hours away from home in the middle of nowhere on a week long trip where I'm all but expecting to hook into 40+lb fish.
