FishEng Rod Extenders
Dave Eng has worked in the fishing industry for nearly three decades so it is no surprise that he developed one of the most innovative products for the boating industry , FishEng Rod Extenders . One of the most popular is the 15-inch bent aluminum rod extension . This all machined metal rod extension allows you to put your rod up off of the gunnel where it can be easily grabbed from a standing position . No more leaning way down and then fighting the edge of the boat to lift your rod .
Even better is the bent design as it puts the rod and reel out over the water , not only widening the spread of gear , allowing lures and lines to keep from tangling , but also to create more space inside the boat . A long-handled rod no longer sticks inside the boat where you can bump into it or walk around it . Made from aluminum they won ’ t rust and are easily mounted on the boat . Compatible with your favorite rod holder they come in a black anodized or aluminum finish .
