After coming back from fishing one morning I was annoyed when trying to find room in the corner of my garage for my rods, or trying to make room to cram them on a shelf. I happened to have some 2×4’s, a saw, drill and screws so rather than going out to spend money at a store to fix my problem, I used what I had and in not very long I had exactly what I needed for all my fishing rods and ice auger! This simple fishing rod rack & organizer can be made however wide or short needed to fit all your fishing rods and ice auger too. Check it out …
Materials:
- 3 2×4’s (length equal to how wide you would like to built the unit)

- 3″ Wood Screws
- Wood Stain / Varnish
- PPE (Safety Glasses, Work Gloves, Hearing Protection, Etc.)
Instructions (for a 30″ wide unit):

5) That’s it you’re done …….
To secure the rod rack to the wall, locate 2 studs and fasten the rack to them with the 3″ screws … one screw per stud should be enough but use as many as you need to ensure that it is secure.
That’s it … now go ahead and load up the rod rack with your fishing poles and ice auger and say good bye to rod clutter frustration forever!
