[ICAST 2023] No More Redfish Confusion with the Boonedox Slot Stick

Boonedox was at ICAST this year showing off a new surf fishing product, the Slot Stick surf rod holder. While best known for their kayak accessories like the Groovy Kayak Landing Gear and Groovy T-Bone Bed Extender, it does not mean they aren’t familiar with the needs of anglers in the surf. The Slot Stick rod holders are new premium rod holders for surf anglers targeting redfish from the surf. These rod holders are laser cut from a single piece of aluminum tube, with no sharp corners in any of the cuts for maximum strength. They are vinyl wrapped with a redfish-patterned fish ruler that goes up to 18 inches, the minimum size limit for Redfish in NC, GA, and FL. From that 18-inch mark to the end of the Slot Stick is exactly 27 inches which is also the upper end of the slot for redfish as well, so any redfish that sits anywhere in the middle is welcome to chill out on some ice.

The Slot Stick ships with a BDX No-Stick towel that is attached to a D-Clip. That clip does double duty and acts as the bottom of the rod holder and can be moved up or down the rod holder in the precut holes to adjust how deep your surf rod sits in the holder. The Slot Stick is available now on the Boonedox website and retails for $69.95 for one, or $269.95 for a four pack.
