Rods to have on hand... which ones?

[undercut]

I have a couple of these, and they are fine as long as you thread the top on squarely. Northern has an identical one, but the want like $15 for it.

You know, I keep seeing those, look at them for a bit and keep walking because I don't know if they are any good and figure that surely I have something at home that would do. Nice to hear from someone who's used them because I still haven't found anything at home that would do better and need to buy some rods soon.

Just read the reviews on this rod holder. One person says they only hold 5 pounds of rods. I thought they were bigger than that(?)

Thanks for feedback on this.
