A lightweight rod rest designed for fishing with one rod. Mobile anglers and anglers who only need a rod rest for baiting up, when bass fishing in the surf, use sand spikes regular. This version comes with a plastic gate which locks the rod into the rod rest to avoid it bouncing out, useful in adverse weather and when sea conditions are rougher. The sharp spike will work its way into sand and between shingle easily. Its the perfect rod rest for the mobile angler.
