Abstract
A fishing rod holder for holding a conventional fishing poles include rigid hoops to include a conventional fishing pole handle therein. The invention includes a trigger and trigger setting mechanism using a tension setting mechanism, actuating arm, trigger, and spring to set the fishing rod holder at a desired sensitivity. The fishing rod holder uses spring recoil energy to snap the fishing rod holder to quickly return to the resting position to hook a fish.
