I got these mainly to store rods in a location that wasn't as far back
behind the seat as the rod tubes on my ACK Milk Crate Buddy. I
wanted something that would get the reels up off the deck above the
water and that had a built-in way to secure the extender to the kayak
and the rod to the extender.

I got these mainly to store rods in a location that wasn't as far
back behind the seat as the rod tubes on my ACK Milk Crate
Buddy. I wanted something that would get the reels up off the
deck above the water and that had a built-in way to secure the
extender to the kayak and the rod to the extender. The basic
Hobie extenders are too short, having only a 10" distance from the
bottom of the slot cut for the spinning reel foot and the bottom of
the tube (my reel foot is right at 10" from the end of the rod).
These adjustable ones are much better in this regard as the
distance from the reel foot slot to the end of the tube is 11-1/2",
AND the tube is open at the end, so the rod end can extend
through an extra 1" or more without hitting the base (that goes
into the molded-in holders). In just this regard, they are great,
but they also offer integral hooks and adjustable webbing straps
with carabiners to tie the extenders to padeyes on the kayak. This
ensures the extenders (and your rods) won't fall out if you turtle,
but also that the extender will stay put after a fish strike when
trolling. I even discovered you can adjust the angle to point the
rods far back (almost horizontal) for those rare times when fishing
on smaller streams where overhead obstacles such as limbs and
low bridges may be present. Overall, well worth the investment.

The rod holders are well built but unfortunately Hobie has scrimped
on the length of the tie down straps. While the unit can still be
used, the short length of the straps do not allow you to connect to
existing padeyes. This means you will need to install new padeyes.
Perhaps not a big deal but it does mean putting screw holes in your
kayak where it should not be necessary to do so. This is the case
with my PA12.
