The Oceansouth Clamp On Rod Holder 44mm bolts onto a 44 mm bimini or rail tube so you can park a rod out of the way while you sound around. The straight tube design suits a single outfit with a butt diameter under roughly 32 mm, keeping the reel clear of side decks and seat backs. The holder lines up well along standard alloy frames where the cross bar sits about 800–1,000 mm above the floor.

The body is high impact polymer with a metallic style finish, sized at around 250 mm long to give the rod butt decent support. The clamp section matches round tube with a 44 mm outer diameter, which you see on plenty of Aussie biminis and rocket launchers. The material copes with salt spray and afternoon heat on bays and estuaries where surface temps often push past 30°C. It is straightforward bolt-on gear and a smart buy for simple rod storage.

Q: Will this rod holder fit any round rail on my boat?

It only suits rails that are 44mm outside diameter. If your bimini or rail tube is smaller or larger, this clamp will not sit correctly. Measure the outside of your existing tube with vernier calipers or a tape before ordering. A snug fit on 44mm tube helps the holder stay put when a rod loads up.

Q: Can this holder be moved to a different position later?

Yes, the clamp on design allows repositioning along the same 44mm tube. You can loosen the clamp hardware and slide the holder to a new spot on the frame. This helps you tune rod angles around clears or rocket launchers. Just re tighten the fasteners firmly to avoid rotation under load.

Q: Is the high impact polymer suitable for saltwater use?

Yes, high impact polymer stands up well to normal saltwater exposure. The material will not corrode like bare steel, so it suits open estuary and bay work. Rinsing the holder with fresh water after trips helps keep grit out of the clamp area. Avoid harsh solvents that can mark plastic surfaces.

Q: How many rod holders can I add to a single bimini frame?

You can fit multiple holders as long as they all clamp to 44mm tube and there is enough straight length. Leave clear space between holders so reels do not clash when rods are loaded. Consider clearance for folding the bimini forward or back. Spreading holders along the frame keeps weight and stress even.
