Lee'S Tackle

<h3>A Century of Saltwater Sport Fishing Innovation</h3><p><strong>Lee's Tackle</strong> is one of the most storied names in saltwater sport fishing, with a heritage stretching back to 1920. Lee's Tackle, Inc. is a fourth-generation, family-owned and operated business that began when Edward J. Lee opened a retail fishing store in Miami, Florida. Over the following decades, the brand evolved from a local shop into an industry-shaping manufacturer known around the world.</p><p>In the mid-1930s, motivated by his love of fishing and his passion for innovation, Roswell E. Lee, Sr. began manufacturing big game fishing reels, rod holders, and fighting chairs — and his innovative designs revolutionized the sport fishing industry. He was the first to use aluminum tubing in the fabrication of outriggers, and he also designed and patented the fishing rod Roller Top. These breakthroughs set the standard for a generation of tackle manufacturers, and many of those original designs remain in production today.</p><h3>Precision Engineering Built for Big Game Anglers</h3><p>The brand's success and reputation are the result of creative ideas, precision engineering, high-quality materials, and outstanding workmanship. Whether you're rigging a center console for a day offshore or outfitting a dedicated sport fishing yacht, Lee's Tackle builds components that serious anglers depend on.</p><p>The product line has expanded to include over 46 distinct rod holder models, 8 styles of outrigger holders, and outrigger poles from 11 to 46 feet in length, as well as many other miscellaneous sport fishing products. When it comes to rod holders, they are offered in more than 46 models for any application — including flush mount, swivel base, clamp-on, and other designs.</p><h3>Industry-Leading Outriggers</h3><p>At the heart of the Lee's Tackle lineup are their legendary <a href="/7426-lees-tackle-outriggers-accessories-202318">Outriggers &amp; Accessories</a>. More than 60 years ago, the Lee family pioneered the use of high-strength, cold-drawn, marine-grade aluminum to manufacture what became regarded as the world's strongest and most reliable outriggers. The MX8000 Pro Series riggers continue this tradition with superior strength, durability, and ease of operation for sport fishermen around the world. From compact poles suited to smaller center consoles to massive 46-foot rigs for offshore tournament fishing, Lee's Tackle offers a configuration for every boat and every budget.</p><h3>A Brand Trusted Worldwide</h3><p>Lee's Tackle leads the sport fishing industry with innovative ideas and precision engineering, and their designs continue to be the most copied throughout the industry — a testament to how far ahead of the curve the brand has always been. They were the first to make swivel base rod holders, aluminum clamp-on rod holders, and aluminum outriggers. For any angler who takes big game fishing seriously, Lee's Tackle represents the benchmark in quality and performance.</p>

Product Details

The Lee's Tackle RH5169H is a premium 15-degree stainless steel flush mount swivel base rod holder designed for serious sportfishing applications. This medium-size short swivel base rod holder features a 2" OD x 6.5" long tube, making it ideal for stand-up rods with curved butts.

Revolutionary Swivel Base Design:

The unique swivel base allows the rod butt to rotate freely when side pressure is applied to the rod tip, making this the ultimate rod holder for bent butt tackle. This innovative feature is especially valuable in big game fishing applications, such as Giant Bluefin Tuna fishing, where reel drags of 60 pounds or more create tremendous forces on the rod holder pin.

Key Features:

  • 15-degree angle for optimal fishing position
  • 2" outside diameter x 6.5" long stainless steel tube
  • Swivel base eliminates sheared rod holder pins
  • Allows rod tip to follow the fish, reducing line fraying
  • Prevents enhanced drag from line streaming sideways
  • Easier rod removal - not locked on rigid pin
  • Adjustable torque via two nylon drag washers
  • 1/2" stainless steel lock nut for pressure adjustment
  • Functions as standard rod holder with straight butt rods
  • Flush mount installation for clean deck appearance

Performance Benefits:

The swivel action ensures the line remains on the roller tip instead of dragging over it, maintaining smooth line flow and reducing wear. With straight butt rods, the holder can be manually rotated to keep the line properly aligned with the tip roller. The adjustable nylon drag washers allow you to customize the rotation resistance to match your fishing style and target species.

Constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel for durability in harsh saltwater environments, this rod holder represents Lee's Tackle's commitment to quality marine fishing hardware.
