Exploding Fish EVO-360 Flush Mount Rotating Rod Holder – 8.5" Tube at 15° (2ER158)

The Exploding Fish EVO-360 Flush Mount Rotating Rod Holder (2ER158) is a high-performance, premium marine rod holder designed to give anglers complete control over rod positioning. Featuring a full 360° rotating design, it allows you to adjust your rod angle on the fly—perfect for trolling, live bait fishing, or adapting to changing conditions on the water.

Constructed from mirror-polished 316L stainless steel, this rod holder delivers exceptional durability and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for harsh offshore environments. It is rated for up to 135 lb tackle, providing the strength needed for serious sportfishing applications. 

The 8.5-inch tube length with a 15° angle offers an optimal balance between rod security and spread positioning, while the rotating mechanism allows precise adjustments for outriggers, kite fishing, bottom fishing, and trolling setups. 

Unlike traditional fixed rod holders, the EVO-360 system enables smooth rotation under load, allowing anglers to fine-tune rod placement without removing it—improving efficiency and fighting position during hookups. 

The kit includes full mounting hardware, gasket, and installation template, ensuring a secure and straightforward flush-mount installation. Its advanced design also features specialized drain attachments that rotate with the holder, preventing hose twisting and improving long-term reliability.
