Fishing Rod Holders

I am still manicaly Googleing for a pair of stainless steel, clamp on fishing rod holders. I would prefer that they clamped on to the A-frame rather than were welded on.

The Americans seem to have them coming out of their earholes. I had a pair ordered from the US but they cancelled my order.

Anyone know where you can get them in the UK?

Me.

Surely there is a fabricator that someone on here knows that can make these.

Andy

What diameter tube is your A-frame?

and what diameter tube do you want the rod holders made from?

If I can get the tube I'd be able to weld something up for you, but would not be able to polish them after.

Nasher.

That is a kind offer. Thanks. However, I can get something made up over here if push-comes-to-shove.
