What is it?
Sportsman Bumper
What sets it apart?
Finally, a convenient solution to the constant issue of securing rods (and guns) during the unloading process. Built with imbedded magnets, this flexible rack sticks to your vehicle and holds five rods or two rifles or shotguns. Pre-drilled holes offer a handy home mounting option. A Sport Bumper Bracket (sold separately) offers an option for non-magnetic surfaces.
How do I use it?
Before unloading rods or gun, stick the Sportsman Bumper to a convenient spot on the side of your vehicle, then use the molded clips to secure your items. With rods, a foot or two above reel level works; while anywhere along the barrel will suffice for shooters.
The magnets will hold fast to a motionless vehicle, but you’ll want to stow the Sportsman Bumper before driving. Should go without saying, but never lean a loaded gun on this or any other device.

Angler’s insight:
Can’t tell you how many times I’ve leaned rods against my truck while unpacking gear, only to hear what sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard. This product will help keep dirt out of your rods and guns while preventing gear and vehicle scratches. I’ll carry this product on every outing. (Kayakers — maybe a zip tie option for the gear crate?)
