What are the best fishing pole holders for ground fishing?

Absolutely! I’m still leaning towards DIY though, just to try for myself. Anyone have tips for making it faster?

Well, if you use a pre-made base, it speeds things up! Then focus on the top portion that holds the pole. It’s all about balancing speed with quality. I find it fun!

Great tip! I guess it depends on how committed you are to the DIY aspect versus the time crunch. I might just buy a ready-made holder eventually.

It’s a heated debate! DIY might offer craftsmanship, but store options can cater to specific needs (like compactness). What’s everyone’s favorite feature in a holder?

Ease of transport! A collapsible holder suits my style perfectly. DIYers, do you think that’s hard to achieve?

I love that feature too! I’ve seen collapsible designs, and they can be made pretty simply. Just a few hinges and the right materials.

This is just turning into a DIY project fest! Haha, but seriously, I do enjoy crafting it myself. It feels rewarding.

I get that, Cynthia! But doesn’t DIY sometimes just lead to a chaotic workshop? Just this week, I ended up building a mini fishing rod holder by mistake!

Haha, that’s hilarious! At least you have a story to tell. Just remember, DIY can be messy but oh so rewarding if done right!
