Question:

I am the market for a Fishing Rod carrier and need a brand that will give me enough clearance to accommodate my large Surf Reels without having them bounce against the roof of my CRV. I see that you carry the Lift Brackets for the Yakima ReelDeal my question is: does any of the other Bands offer lifters or is my only choice the Yakima? Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:

The Yakima ReelDeal # Y04089 is the only rod holder that has the lifter brackets # Y8860037 to lift the carrier to gain extra clearance. You could get the Yakima FatCat # Y03095 which has lifter brackets built in. This is marketed towards ski and snowboards but can be used with fishing rods too. Either of these options will give you the clearance you need.
