I have been asked to make 10 heavy duty 316 SS pole holders. 10 each 4"x4" 3/16 plates, 11/4" SS pipe, 1"x1/4" flat stock to keep the butt from spinning at the bottom. Weekend warriors, and charter boats do not use real heavy drag, and have lighter line on the reels. Commercial boats have 180-200+LB test on the reels, and keep the drags really tight, no IGFA stuff
I personally have broken pins, and ripped the pole holder tubes off of the mounts, so these are the in thing. Next is the welding which I dread, my TIG is not so nice. The Rose index worked well flipping the pipe for notching.
