ABSTRACT An apparatus for holding a fishing rod. The apparatus comprises a body member having a top surface for sup- porting the rod thereon, a pair of shoulder members formed at one end of the body member to define a first channel, and a clasp member mountable to said body member at an opposite end to define a second channel. The first channel has an open side substantially paral- lel to the body member's top surface, and the second channel has an open side substantially perpendicular to the top surface. The second channel is configured to resist certain forces imposed on the rod tip. The rod is placed in the rod holder to extend between the first and second channels with the butt of the rod extending beyond the second channel. The rod holder may further include an arm to which one end of the body member is pivotally mounted, and means connected between the body member and the arm at a point spaced from the pivotally mounted end for dampening movement of the body member. The apparatus prevents damage to the line and/or rod due to a sudden impact to the line, such as might occur when a fish strikes the lure or bait. The apparatus is also designed to facilitate removal of the rod therefrom.
