Fishing 101: DIY Rod holders

Picture it!! You’re a bank fisherman/fisherwoman and you’re trying to discover if there is a such thing as the perfect rod holder!! Utilizing some good ole’ PVC pipe, metal stakes and some hose clamps, I’ve taken ordinary items and turned them into a tool for fishing. Following the steps in this video, you can do the same thing as well. It really is easy as 1, 2 and 3. Would like to give a shoutout to Kevin with the Fishing Adventures of Catterman for the inspiration behind the design!! Also a very special happy birthday to my man, J Crews because this video is dropping on his birthday, so this video is dedicated to J Crews!!

Awesome! Thanks for the shout-out homie. I like how you added your own touch to them. These are the ultimate rod holders and are super strong, not even a 40lb cat will move these. 🤘😎

The Fishing Adventures of Catterman I saw how they didn’t move when you had big boys hitting, I was sold after that

[@houston471]

Good idea! I like the holders that are spring like..

[@bigb63fsu]

I’ve tried those a couple years ago, I couldn’t get used to them

[@sambenard2844]

CLASSIC CLASS AND STYLE ! Love It !

[@bigb63fsu]

Can’t beat them homemade, DIY!!

[@ronnieself4788]

I have made like that one of my fishing buddies made for me not as fancy but works tight lines forever

[@bigb63fsu]

Very true, it was just something I threw together, looking at everything more in-depth, there’s definitely more I’m could have done but hey, at the end of the day it works

[@FishingFrenzyUSA]

Man, this is great stuff! Also gives me an idea to make a combo rod holder and rod storage out of PVC...I'm gonna have to think on how to make that work, but I LOVE this idea!

[@bigb63fsu]

Looking back at this video, there are some things I could have done differently but they work and they came out alright I think

[@blacklabelfishing1454]

I was expecting them to be purple and black or orange and black lol

[@jenbilbrey1089]

That's the only way to go to PVC Schedule 40. At least in most cases and a very good rod holder like you said they do not come out of the ground. By the way I lost a ride just like you I still haven't gotten over that and it's been 20 years ago. Due to a cheap rod holder. Also wanted to say I hope you ain't get no overspray on the house. The wife wouldn't be too happy LOL tightlines my friend

[@bigb63fsu]

I’ve lost enough rods to big fish 🤣🤣, surprisingly I’ve gotten them all back too. I was just tired of the cheap Y rod holders at dicks braking on me

[@jenbilbrey1089]

@@bigb63fsu I know what you mean. I bought two kayaks from Dick's Sporting Goods sit on tops. Anyway I am a big catfish person love to go after those big flat heads. Or big Blues it don't matter. I have enjoyed talking to you sir take care of yourself. God bless

[@CHUNKYCATSFISHING]

[@bigb63fsu]

[@mauricecason5369]

Nice rod holders

[@bigb63fsu]

Maurice thank you!!

[@warrenjackson1157]

What were your measurements for the PVC pipe, as well as the metal rod that you used as the stake. Please

[@bigb63fsu]

I just brought the PVC and steel rods as is

[@19reeves79]

How much this this project run you after it was all said and done

[@bigb63fsu]

Everything together; stakes, spray paint, letters, pvc and brackets, about $18

[@antcantmiss]

im in dc but im lazy lol, no i jus dont have tools

[@bigb63fsu]

Only tool needed is either a wrench or ratchet. The paint was my own finishing touch

[@antcantmiss]

ill give u 25 bucks rn

[@bigb63fsu]

Lol, these aren’t hard to make

[@RondoOfChaos]

or.. instead of wasting that all money i'll just buy the shitty 4 dollar walmart one and be a bit more careful.

[@bigb63fsu]

That used to be my mindset, but those cheap $4 rod holders break, bend or warp in some type of way every couple months. These rod holders I made over 2 years ago and they’re still lasting
