Cannon 2450169-1 Three-Position Adjustable Rod Holder

The media could not be loaded.  I have bought 4 of these at different times, can't say how much I love it.I use it for jigging as well as trolling. Particularly, when I mount it on a Jigger, I needed to be able to move the rod forward or backward based on rod and lure weight, this holder has 3 positions that allows me to do exactly that.Positives:3 places to put the rod, which allows you to adjust your rod forward to back according to needs.3 way to mount the baseangle of the hold easily adjustableSturdy yet not cumbersomeReasonable priceNegatives: NONE.

Price was great, and the adjustment is excellent. I bolted the blocks side mount style inside my gunnel, and can rotate them just like any other holder. Then you can switch to the other hole and aim it straight up and down to hold a net or gaff. The lock is smoother and easier to move than others I have used but still has a nice solid detent on it to keep it locked or open. The bases are great in that they are universal, no need to order separate bases for a top or side mount situation.Compared to Fish-on and Attwood brand holders, the hole pattern in the bases is slightly wider in the long direction, but it was no big deal to shift the mount slightly and re-drill the holes. The base covered up the old ones so they do not show.Update: No issues after several years of use now. The fit of the post into the mount is tight when new but did wear in and now is really nice. Sunlight hasn't made them all ugly like some other brands I've owned in the past. Smaller poles will rattle around in them but they do fit without issue. I run anything from light trout gear to 20oz bottom fishing jigs and haven't had any trouble with them.I'm surprised people expect mounting hardware. There is so many different materials and thicknesses these could bolt to that it would cost $10 each more for cannon to include hardware to cover EVERY situation, I'll go to the store and get what I need thanks. I ended up using 1/4" stainless phillips pan heads thru the aluminum gunnel extrusion from the outside, with SAE washers and nylock nuts on the inside. Only used 2 of the four holes here. On my other boat which is fiberglass, I thru bolted to the gunnel using all 4 holes.

No need to wait until instal to review. This is a rock solid rod holder and extension. For those who have complained about the break in period because 360 pull/push is hard to orientate...you absolutely want it to be hard to pop out. It's a tabbed recess so it won't get yanked out by Walter.Excellent productUpdate: Install was super easy and I deffinatly wanted to use my hardware of choice for my application. You have a life long customer Cannon and I am speaking about the life of the rod holders not mine. I ordered two more right after I installed the first two. No brainer...

These are a Godsend! Don't waste your time and money on those "cheap" clamp-on rod holders that will inevitably fail.Installed correctly (it would be helpful if they provided instructions), these are rock-solid rod holders that work with most fishing poles and reels. They do work best with longer handle fishing rods, but you can improvise by affixing the reel in the "up position" or adding some PVC piping to the end of shorter rod handles.I installed 4 of these HORIZONTALLY (2 in back, 2 in front) on my 14 foot, deep-V aluminum boat as follows:1. Use 2-one and one-eighth inch, 1/4-20, stainless steel hex bolts (INBOARD) for EACH holder, utilizing the TOP 2 MOUNTING HOLES. No need to use all 4 mounting holes unless you're fishing for tuna! Your length may vary depending on the thickness of your gunwales. I set my holders 1/2" below the gunwales to ENSURE CLEARANCE OF THE ADJUSTMENT KNOB. **Double-check clearance of knob BEFORE drilling 1/4" holes!!!2. Use stainless 1/4" flat-washers (behind hex nut heads) inboard (inside boat), and outboard (outside of boat) of brackets (squirt silicone BEHIND OUTBOARD flat-washer, then add stainless 1/4" lock-washer, and finally, a 1/4" lock-nut. **Snug tightly, but NOT TOO TIGHTLY! You'll risk cracking the nylon brackets. No need to "reef" down the hardware with gorilla force! Just make sure the brackets are secure when you try to move them manually.3. Wipe off excess silicone with a paper towel. Will never leak once cured.**WARNING** Make sure you mount the brackets so the TOP rod-holder, when PULLED UP TO LOOSEN, comes off INBOARD!!! This is crucial, otherwise you risk losing your fishing pole and rod-holder if a big fish hits and you haven't pushed down and "LOCKED" the holder!! Experiment before fastening hardware and you'll see what I mean. **The TOP rod-holder MUST come OFF facing the INSIDE of your boat when adjusting the holder position. The brackets really should've been marked with "top".Hope this helps!

Rod Holders have been installed on my Princecraft Yukon and they look awesome. Although I have yet to try them out they apear to be very functional and exactly what I was looking for. I am very happy with my purchase !
