The linear member holder is able to hold fishing poles, keep them separated and free from tangling, and maintain a distance between the reels.
Claims17
A linear member holder comprising:
- a body comprising:
- a substantially circular cross-section;
- at least two opening slots running along a length of the body and extending from an exterior of the body toward a respective securing end;
- and
- a corner angle is formed at an intersection of each of the opening slots and the respective securing ends, the corner angle is greater than 0 degrees, each opening slot is configured to accept a linear member and each securing end is configured to secure said linear member;
- wherein at least a portion of each securing end is narrower than at least a portion of the opening slot and at least a portion of the securing end is smaller than the linear member such that a compression force is applied on the linear member, when the linear member is inserted.
