Nice job, only recommendation I would have is to stay close to them and not space them too far apart, Big cats have been known to bend tall holders and snatch your rod before you can turn around....
Having fun is hard work sometimes! Not the biggest but big enough!

They look tall because i only had them 4inches in the ground so I could weld them up but when I go fishing half the Rodholder should be in the ground . And I hope they don't snatch my rod or I'm swimming with my 1911 and going to look for him haha

Gave it a yank test. Loaded up the drag and pulled pretty hard at 25yards 50yards and 70yards and rod did not budge . Gave me a little more cofidence that it can handle a pissed off blue pull
