While most think the PRO is just for offshore anglers, many land based anglers enjoy the PRO model that allows them to fish with more options, as well as carry rods for friends and family. The EXP model is great for anglers who like to travel light, fish with just a few rods, or are walking long distances to fishing spots.

Explore mounts →Easy! Slide the rod into the holder with the fly reel below the bungee, then secure the strap. The Spinning & Fly holder is preferred. Always keep fly reels below the secured bungee; the above-bungee quick-access method is for compatible non-fly setups only.
When fishing, leave the bungee straps locked and insert fishing rods with the reels above the bungee instead of below so your setups can slide in and out quickly while fishing. Loading rods above the locked bungees also helps elevate reels higher off the ground. Switch back to reel-below-bungee loading for moving vehicles or vessels.
Pull the legs from the rear storage clips and slide them straight into the upper-plate openings. To remove a leg, brace the plate with your thumb and pull straight out without twisting. To remove a holder, press its two rear tabs inward and slide it off. To install a holder, just slide it in until it clicks.
In moving vehicles or vessels, keep reels below the bungees and fasten the straps. Strap the caddy securely to the vehicle or vessel as well. Check rod-tip clearance and keep the load clear of passengers and vehicle controls. Fit depends on the rods and available space.
Load the center holder first and unload it last. Balance rods between the left and right sides before setting the caddy down. If using the center rod, move the remaining side rod into the center for improved balance. The separate Wall Mount helps save space by storing Rod-Runners vertically; make sure to allow extra ceiling clearance to lift the loaded caddy on and off.
