I have one of those. It lives outside. It does vibrate a bit. I wonder if that is a breaking point just waiting to happen.

And sorry about the life jacket and rod holder derail boys! Hopefully @A-a-Ron has some more fish pics in the near future as it seems he’s the only one catching keepers! And if your license is full - no excuses! Bring a friend or family member! Let’s go!!!

Yikes. I’ve got those as well. Several years old. Always concerned about the torque on them and fatigue. Maybe time to get new ones.

being so high up and the extension must create alot of stress on that bottom point of the extension in time im sure will fatigue and eventually snap

I had a Scotty rod holder let go recently too. Rod and reel by by. Mine was the black plastic one that comes with the rigger.

The stainless rocket launcher type are the only Scotty holder I trust anymore

The Scotty 247 dual rod holder works very well too. No knuckle to give it a weak point.
