About Us

The Peterson Family has been manufacturing our quality fishing tackle since 1946 in Lewiston, Maine. Our original D-10 Down-Easter Rod Holder was first designed and produced in the Fall of 1946. It was originally designed to offer fishermen a “third hand”, while they rowed their canoe or rowboat. Over the past seventy years, a number of different mounting systems were developed while the basic mechanism remained unchanged. Our family owned and operated company continues to be committed to providing the highest quality products and services for our customers, representative of the Peterson’s Yankee ingenuity and craftsmanship.

Testimonials

"For trophy muskies, my rod holders have to be super strong; I have to be certain the rod is locked in; and they have to operate in all kinds of weather, including well below freezing. Down-East Holders have done this for me for twenty years.”
By : Pete Maina Muskie & Northern Pike Angler
"I have used the Down-East Rod Holders for over twenty years. Sebago Lake can produce waves in excess of five feet. I have always relied on the positive hold in the roughest weather and a quick release when a fish is on. Down-East Rod Holders are versatile to hold a variety of rods and adjustable to put my lure where I want it.”
By : Tim Delorme - Registered Maine Master Guide
"I have caught hundreds of big catfish using your rod holders, they pull so hard that they nearly yank me out of the boat when I get the rod out of the Down-East Rod Holder, which never so much as creaks. I would never dream of using anything else.”
By : Will Chambers - Virginia
"I was in the need of a portable, clamp style rod holder to put on my aluminum boat for the rigors of late fall trolling; ice breaking and potential extreme cold temperatures where even the best plastic holders can break. I decided to buy two Down-East Salty Holders and after three weeks had two 7 mph snags and more than a generous share of big musky blasts, I am more than pleased to admit that your products have exceeded my greatest demands. Nothing could have compared. Perfect!”
By : Brian Miller - Minnesota
" Good design and solid materials, overall. What I like best is how I can pull my rod right straight up out of the holder instead of having to back it out."
By : Rob Lyons - Adventure Journalist/Author
