Fishing Rod Leash Attachment Ideas for Kayak Anglers
I share ideas for where and how to attach fishing rod leashes on a kayak, and briefly show how to make homemade rod leashes.
What’s in this video
Losing a rod overboard is no fun, so this one is all about rod leash attachment points and a few simple mods. I also go over, briefly, how to make your own homemade rod leashes for kayak fishing.
After the intro I walk through three ideas: a paracord loop, I screws, and a float. If you would rather buy leashes than make them, I put a link in the description to some pretty good deals.
Key moments
Quick takeaways
- A paracord loop is a simple attachment point for a rod leash.
- I screws are another way to add a leash attachment point.
- You can make homemade rod leashes instead of buying them.
