Rod Carrier itself is a good product, the hardware to mount it sucks! They used brass nuts in hard plastic knobs threaded onto steel ubolts. I installed it last year hand tightened the knobs and when I tried to remove it last fall the brass nuts being softer than the steel threaded u-bolts had distorted with just hand tightening pressure and it was a nightmare to remove them. I had to clean up the threads on the u-bolts and then go purchase stainless steel nuts to reinstall it this spring. For the price of the product you'd think they'd spend an extra few dollars and use stainless steel hardware or at least all steel. This is a word of warning, if you install it hand tight to the point that it's secure anticipate problems removing it. You might want to install appropriate hardware the first time. Yakima could have done much better.
The best product I have purchased in a long while. I used it several times on long trips, and it exceeded my expectations.
So happy with this product and the representatives from etrailer for recommending this to me, very happy with the experience!
Everyone was very helpful ! It was nice to have a place that cared about their customers.
Product is perfect. Design and finish is as expected. Rugged hardware came semi assembled with was a brilliant touch ( pic added ). 5 star product has to be dinged for finish, I would've paid 1 to 2 hundred extra for ceramic or powder coat, or maybe instead of horrible open end wrench, a 10 dollar ratchet box wrench option is better. 2nd star for damage. Pic added, I run an auto body shop and know shipping and seeing the way my package arrived the way it did tells me someone knew about the bent product and at some point said F-IT. I believe I'm qualified to figure 190 bucks is a fair amount to live with said issues. Who wants to deal with returning such a heavy product. I can straighten metal and have refinished stronger for about 400 bucks.
Awesome setup to save precious time on/in the water. Before using the double haul, I carried all of my fly rods (plus a friends) in cases that were thrown in the back of the Jeep. Now, I can rig all of my rods the night before, slide them in, lock the case and then wake up the next morning and fish as soon as I get to the river.
Assembly took 10 minutes and mounting maybe another 15 (I was by myself, would be easier with an extra hand). SOLID mount and I am not worried about it as I go down the interstate at all.
Etrailer.com shipped it with lightning speed and I will be buying from them again!

The Yakima Double Haul has been tremendous. I love the ability to have 10 rods stored without breaking them down. I fish a 3wt 10 euro nymph rod and the carrier has been phenomenal. It does get a little dusty inside when Im driving at higher speeds on gravel forest service roads. No big issue for me. It is quite the beast. Very solid construction. I can put on and take off my Bronco solo though. Only upgrade I would consider would be a 12 option to use with my SteelheadSalmon 8wt rods.
Arrived fast and not damaged. The rack was just like the description on the website. Cannot wait to get her installed!
