Designed for simplicity and durability, it features a classic telescopic design that adjusts to your preferred height, ensuring a steady resting position for your gear.

FAQs
How long is the rod holder when fully extended?
The telescopic design allows for variable height adjustment to suit different bank conditions and rod lengths.
Can this be used on a wooden fishing pier?
No, the spike is designed specifically for insertion into soft ground like dirt, sand, or mud.
Will this holder damage my fishing rod?
The V-rest is designed to be a stable cradle; however, ensure your rod is placed gently to avoid scratches.
Is this suitable for heavy-duty surf fishing?
While durable, it is best suited for freshwater or light-to-medium shore fishing; heavy surf tackle may require a larger, specialized sand spike.
How do I clean the rod holder?
Wipe it down with a damp cloth after use and ensure it is completely dry before collapsing it for storage.
Troubleshooting
The telescopic pole slips down during use
Ensure the locking mechanism is twisted firmly until tight. If it continues to slip, check for debris inside the threads and clean thoroughly.
The holder leans or tips over in loose soil
Try burying the stake deeper into the ground or use a rock to pack the soil tightly around the base for extra support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Zebco Trophy Tele V is straightforward: pull the telescopic sections to the desired length and twist to lock. Ensure that you push the spike deep enough into the ground to withstand the tension of a sudden strike.
This holder is compatible with most standard spinning and baitcasting rod handles. To ensure a long lifespan, rinse the metal spike with fresh water after use in salt or muddy environments to prevent corrosion. Periodically check the locking mechanism for debris and wipe the exterior with a dry cloth before storing it in a cool, dry place.
