I have purchased four to use on my boat next year and feel they are very well made and will be a great plus. These should work great for planner boards, dipsy divers and trolling.
Worked great. I used it trolling for Kings in the Gulf. It gave me the ability to use 4 rods. It was a lot better then drilling additional holes in my boat for more rod holders. The only thing is I wish they had a dual rod holder one for each side of the boat.
Not Using this product for Kite fishing, but is nice for sharking or chunking for tuna. Allows 2 more pole holders on one side of the boat and can be moved if the boat turns. Very Convenient. I guess it works for kite fishing too.
