Stealth Rod Holders Hits The Scene With Smart Security

New in the kayak accessory game, Stealth brings high quality and unique solutions to their new rod holder. Their QR-2 adjustable rod holder has a pressure sensitive latch that locks the rod in place. When the rod is inserted in the rod holder, the latch closes to secure the rod. Remove the rod and the latch pops open. The pressure actually helps set the hook on a fish. We like that the rod can be inserted anywhere along the rod butt to secure the rod without the reel wedged into the holder. The QR-2 fits in a variety of Stealth mounts to install in gear tracks or directly to the kayak.

“Thank God my dad wasn’t a podiatrist,” Ric jokes about following in the footsteps of a famous outdoor writer. After graduating from Radford University and serving two years in Russia with the Peace Corps, Ric returned to Virginia Beach and started writing for The Fisherman magazine, where his dad was editor. When the kayak fishing scene exploded, Ric was among the first to get onboard. His 2007 book, The Complete Kayak Fisherman is one of the first how-to books to introduce anglers to paddle fishing. In 2010, Ric took on the role of editor at Kayak Angler magazine where he covered the latest trends in kayak fishing tactics, tackle, gear and destinations. A ravenous angler, Ric fishes from the mountain to the sea chasing everything from smallmouth bass to striped bass.
