C.E. Smith Aluminum Vertical Clamp-On Rod Holder 1-2/3" OD White Powdercoat w/Sleeve

The C.E. Smith Aluminum Vertical Clamp-On Rod Holder 1-2/3" OD in white powdercoat is the hardworking solution for anglers and boaters who demand secure, reliable rod storage on gunwales, railings, or console edges. This vertical-mount design keeps rods within immediate reach while freeing up deck space for gear, bait coolers, and active fishing.

Built by C.E. Smith—a name trusted across the marine industry for four decades—this rod holder features heavy-duty aluminum construction that resists corrosion from saltwater and UV exposure. The white powdercoat finish blends seamlessly with most boat aesthetics and reflects heat to protect your rods. The 1-2/3" outer diameter sleeve accommodates standard spinning and conventional rod handles without wobble or rattle, and the clamp mechanism is designed for easy installation without drilling.

Weighing just 2.1 pounds, it adds minimal topside weight while delivering exceptional holding power for rods from light panfish gear to heavy saltwater sticks. Experienced anglers install multiple holders to organize different tackle setups—jigging rods, trolling combos, and casting outfits—reducing fumbling and improving safety on the water.
