Have you ever had that careless moment where you set your paddle or your fishing rod down and turn around to see it almost float away? Paddles and fishing rods are expensive. Don’t let them float away from a moment of distraction. A paddle leash or paddle holder is a great accessory for keeping your paddle secure and a rod leash is a great way to protect your rod. The good news is that a paddle and rod leashes are the same equipment and can be used interchangeably!

Paddle Holder
There are a number of styles of paddle holders available. I prefer ones that have a low-profile or can be removed. Otherwise, you must be careful where you install a holder to stay out of the way of your paddling stroke.
