How long should a surf rod holder be?
I would go at least 4′-5′ long and minimum 2″ ID. As you can see in the linked pic, I like the aluminum ‘Mustad deluxe sand rod holders’. They are tough, light and last a long time, they accept all my surf rods and they have a 2″ ID and are 40″ long.
What angle is a rod holder?
There should be an array of rod holders at 15-degree and 30-degrees, which have been mounted at 22.5-degree and 45-degree angles to the gunnel. Ideally, the rod tips should gradually point further out as they progress up the boat.
