I immediately liked the Burnewiin mounts and accessories; they were uncomplicated, highly functional, and esthetically pleasing. But, I was skeptical about the Burnewiin rod holders, I was used to my gear and didn’t want to make a change. I finally gave the Burnewiin holders a try and when my first salmon hit, I was amazed at how easily my rod released from the holder. My days of losing a fish because I can’t strong-arm the rod out are over thanks to Burnewiin.
