Roof Rack Mounted Fishing Rod Holders
Question:
Can you send info in regards to roof rack mounted fishing rod holders. Maybe manufactured by Thule? Not sure.

Expert Reply:
One of the most common alternate uses for ski and snowboard holders that are rubber clamp style is for fishing rods.
They fit comfortably in the same numbers as the number of skis that a rack can hold, though you can load a few more if you're comfortable with them being closer together.
Thule's best option for this use is the SnowPack 4 Ski model, part # TH7324 . This comes with integrated locks and larger-than-normal release buttons to make it easy to access. It also includes integrated locks to help provide added security to your rods and is compatible with Thule's OneKey system, letting you key-alike all of your Thule accessories.
Rhino Rack also produces its own option as part # RR572 , this is a smaller, 2 ski version that saves a lot of space on your rack and has many of the same features, though I personally like Thule's strap mounting system better than Rhino Rack's brackets.
