Attractive fishing rod holders

I already have two stainless holders mounted to my railing. I would like to get at least 4 more holders but I don’t want to hurt the look of the Whaler. Does anyone know of any good looking rod holders and a good place to mount them. Thanks, Nick - 19' Outrage II

They were chrome on bronze, not stainless steel. I still have the pair I bought in 1986 along with two other pairs I picked up along the way. You can buy new vinyl liners for them from Lee's. These rod holders can be clamped in any position on the rails wherever you like them.

Both are excellent choices but I do believe the CE Smith holders are a bit more substantial and have a nicer finish. [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gamalot/Boat/100_0569.jpg[/IMG]
