I used Yakima’s ReelDeal rod carriers for the last year. It’s a great way to carry your fishing rods. I find I can carry 6 w/ reels rods (mine are all 7’) with one set of ReelDeal by alternating reals front to back. The pic shows 2 pair of real deals as I recently moved 10 rods/reels for the start of the Chesapeake spring fishing season. Great product, typical Yakima quality, all systems are lockable… highly recommend if you are frequently moving rods.
I’m also a long-time big fan of etrailer. Their website and product videos are very helpful, sipping is always quick… top notch vender for just about anything you need for move or carry.
Well built, but it should have rubber plugs to stop noise.
Excellent product. It frees up so much room in your car or SUV. No need to put the rear seats down. Less chance for entanglement and damage to rods and reels. Note the Malone Micro-Sport trailer in the picture. Another great etrailer purchase. Still awesome after 2 years

The ReelDeal has been an great addition to my fishing arsenal. If and when I get a new vehicle I will be using this product even if it’s a truck. Note you might get a slight wind whistle at highway speeds. For me this happens when I have no rods in it. It’s very faint and isn’t bothersome IMO
Works great as advertised.Locks are nice but really not very secure considering they are just plastic tabs.overall I would buy again and recommend to a friend!
I bought these as a present for my brother who is an avid fisherman. he uses these with rails mounted to a toyota tacoma. He loves these things as they free up space in the bed - and also so his rods and reels do not get damaged.
Great product! Goes perfectly with my Yakima cross bars.
Easy to install and looks great. Etrailer processes my order quickly but shipping took 7 days, the only disappointment.
I would use etrailer again.
ReelDeal roof rod carrier. Wow another super product from etrailer installed works great.
All ready for the trip to Ocean City MD!! Rods are secure and ready to travel. Very quick install on the Yakima HD rails. Undo the t-bolt fully, move the pivot point to the furthest position, re insert the t-bolt and tighten slowly. Great combo with the Yakima Overhaul system; I now have room for all of our vacation essentials. Thank you Bridget and the team at etrailer; I needed it fast and you got it to me!
Perfect fit! Thanks for the accommodating of the shipping. We will be return customers.
Seems sturdy enough, however, the mounting hardware is bulky looking which takes away from it. There is no option for T-Slot mounting like the Rhino-Rack product which is also cheaper. If they made a T-Slot adapter kit like they do for their ski racks it would look sleeker and sit lower......Yakima, are you listening?
Great service and consumer follow-up. Quality product at good price. Unfortunately, vehicle won't fit in garage with added height:(
Amy J. And the eTrailer team were aweso me!
The shipping from etrailer was super fast! The roof rack fishing rod
Holder worked great on my trip from Pennsylvania to key west and back!
Friendly and fast service, very competitive prices.
Does what it's meant to do. Easy on/off as well. As for # of rods being 8, that depends on rod type, but I need 4-6 usually and haven't had an issue. Am not disappointed w/ my purchase and would buy again.
Very easy to install, and I was able to mount it to the upper deck of my homemade kayak trailer. Very secure, and it looks good!
Delivery was super quick, product functions as advertised!
Fast shipping top quality product good price I'll continue to order from you all.
Serves the purpose. E-Trailer is super b.
It's a ski rack that works with flyrods. Works great!
Order and shipping: first rate. The ordering was simple and secure, and the item shipped quickly.
Product Quality: Excellent. The rack was very simple to install on my roof cross bars. I tested it with my fishing rods and found it easy to secure and store rods. I like the locking mechanisms provided. I will recommend Etrailer and Yakima to anyone looking for quality service and products.

still working great. I use them all the time.
Great service and fast shipping from etrailer. My only issue with the product is that it only fits 4 of my large offshore Shimano Terez poles with Shimano SW25000 reels aternating them facing forward and backward. Product was easy to install and holds the 4 rods/reels tightly. Fortunately, the carrier is small enough that I can fit two of them side by side on my roof rack so I will order a second one to accomodate all 8 pf my rods/reels.
Works great for holding my rods. Good solution for the price. Shipping was fast.
Came as expected and exactly as advertised. Really easy to install and secures your rods without the fear of them falling off your vehicle.
Excellent product. Easy to install. Holds holds five poles firmly in place. Minus one star because it whistles over 60 mph

It’s a great product that is beautifully designed. We have driven over 200 miles to our fishing spots and the poles are secure.
