CE Smith Drop-In Swivel Rod Holder Insert, 316L Stainless, Fits 1-9/16 Inch ID or Larger

The CE Smith Drop-In Swivel Rod Holder Insert instantly converts any in-gunnel rod holder into a swivel rod holder, giving anglers the ability to turn and position a rod while it is seated in the holder. The insert drops directly into any rod holder with an inside diameter of 1-9/16 inch or larger, so no drilling or permanent modification is required to add swivel capability to an existing setup.

Built from investment cast 316L stainless steel, the insert is constructed to resist corrosion in saltwater and freshwater environments. The swivel mechanism turns smoothly and features adjustable swivel resistance, letting the angler dial in how freely the rod holder rotates. This makes it well suited for fast trolling with heavy baits, bottom fishing with electric reels, running bent butt rods, and fighting big fish directly from the rod holder, where the ability to swing the rod tip toward the fish is a real advantage.
