Today we'll be taking a look at the belt buckle eight rod hold down system. Part number IMF15435. Keep as many as eight fishing rods ready to go on your boat's deck with the belt buckle rod hold down system. With the included hardware, it simply secures down to your boat's deck, and the strap comes over top, holding everything in place. The foam hold downs have accommodations for either end of your pole, allowing you to alternate for maximum storage. The hook and loop strap has a sure grip rubber handle for easy fastening and release. The strap itself is made out of a seat like polyester, so it's going to be strong and durable. Now that we've gone over the features, we'll go ahead and show you how to get it installed.
The first thing we need to do is pick a desired location for our hold downs. These can be mounted vertical or horizontal. We're going to mount them horizontal on our boat deck. Let's go ahead and place them in the general area we want them to be. We'll take off our hook and loop strap. I'm going to set one here, and then I'm going to set the other one up here.
Then I'm going to grab a fishing rod, and make sure the location's going to work. I'd say it will. Let's go ahead and fasten it down. To get these fastened down, let's go ahead and grab our tabs. It's going to be four per hold down. The nub is going to face down, and it's going to go in these slots here.
We'll just need to work our way down. Push them all the way through until the holes are aligned. With that done, we can go ahead and grab our straps, put them in place, then replace our hold down where we had it positioned. We'll need to make sure our strap can be closed up, as you see there. Then we can grab our included screws and fasten it down. Great, now let's do the same thing on our front one. Now we can grab some poles and put them in place.
That's going to complete our look at the belt buckle rod hold down system. Part number IMF15435.

Looked at several solutions to hold my high dollar fly fishing rods on my boat. Looked at several options. This was far and away the best solution. Easy to install and easy to use on the water
I have used these for years in our small fishing boat. Just added them to our blazer river boat to hold our salmon and steelhead rods. These rod holders work great. holds the rods where you put them. This is my third set of them. Had them mounted in the boat the same day I received them
Thanks

Fast delivery! Pleasure doing business with you!
Very durable yet light weight. I have had these on my power drifter and they still hold up good even after having them for 2 years. I like this system cause I can simply secure them and not worry about them flying out of the boat or getting in the way of clients stepping on the rods. It really made more room in the boat to free up floor space not to mention there's no hard plastic on these so they don't rub or wear on the rod blanks. Highly recommend these for your boat. You will not be disappointed.
Item was exactly what i expected and was easy to install.
Great service and product
I do mostly fly fishing and run a guide service. I have been looking for a way to mount rod holders in my boat. I don't have a lot of room and when I saw the Boat Buckle rod holder I decided to give it a try. Great product and perfect for my boat and holding my fly rods.
Installed in my bass buggy pontoon boat since there were no fishing rod holders designed into the boat. The holders were easy to install, securely holds the rods in place, and are easy to use. Good quality material.

The covers have been exposed to the elements and does not show any fading or deterioration. The boatbuckel rod holder gets lots of use and is starting to show some wear. However the level of wear is expected and is still in overall good condition. I expect to get several more years out of it before needed to replace.
Nice can use with or without belt
I have bought 2 sets of these one I put one in my boat. The other I put in my ice fishing rod holder box. I modified it slightly and glued it in the Ice rod box. These buckles protect the poles way better than anything supplied with an ice fishing rod holder box. Also the price is more than worth the value I highly recommend!!
Holds Rods in place. Dont have to worry about them flying out of the boat. Great product Very Happy with them. Had them now for a year, so far so good.

Thanks, the products are still working Great in fact one of the motivating factor of buying these from you was the low price you sell them for in fact Im going to order some of the same to outfit another boat i bought for my Fishing Guide Service. Thanks again for checking in with me really appreciate it.
I purchased these Boat Buckles to use as rod holders for the top of my SUV. After a year of using them i wouldn't change a thing. Not only do they hold down the rods securely enough to drive on the highway with them, but they hold enough rods that i can transport my friends rods as well.
I'm starting a project boat, and will most likely include these on the deck for when im moving to my secret fishing spots.
The product has held up well. It holds the rods secure. You can put the product where it doesn't take up a lot of space. It is difficult to get more than 3 rods in the Boatbuckle.
Excellent product and good service from e-trailer!
Very nice and secure rod holder. I like the hidden fasteners on these better than the Rod Saver brand that these are replacing.
These boat buddies worked great. Mounted horizontally on a jon boat. Middle and back seat. Hardware worked like a charm. Very pleased so far.
mounted on the inside lid of dock box. They are too flimsey. Not a good choice for that.
Great transaction, good shipping and the product I obtained is what I was expecting. Great communication and tracking of the shipping. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
Appears to be a good product. Easy to install. Installation hardware included. I have not had the item long enough to rate quality or endurance.
i havenot used the rod holders yet.
Just an awesome company to do business with. Excellent thanks all the way around if you're wanting old School quality with today's technologies buy the rod rack they sale. Honestly. Randl Mc
Not only do they look good they work great and are so easy to mount on your boat.
Just what I was looking for. Fast shipping!
Easy to install and good quality

After a year in service, the bucket works as designed. Showing some wear and tear but will last for several more years.
Rod holder fits my boat just right. I am very pleased.
