C.E. Smith Flush Mount Rod Holder – 15 Degree – 53671A

The C.E. Smith 53671A Flush Mount Rod Holder is a durable, space-saving solution for anglers who want clean deck lines and reliable rod security. Featuring a 15-degree angled design, this rod holder is ideal for gunwale mounting and provides proper rod positioning for trolling, drifting, or storage while underway.

Constructed from marine-grade stainless steel, the 53671A offers excellent corrosion resistance in both freshwater and saltwater environments. The polished finish delivers a professional, finished look that complements any boat style, while the flush-mount design keeps decks uncluttered and safe.

Perfect for center consoles, offshore boats, and fishing skiffs, this rod holder is built to handle the demands of serious fishing while maintaining a sleek, low-profile appearance.



Key Performance Features

  • Heavy-Duty 316L Stainless: Entirely cast and polished to a mirror finish. Unlike cheaper stamped versions, this cast design handles the extreme torque of a heavy strike from a pelagic fish.

  • Integrally Cast Gimbal Bar: The internal gimbal bar at the bottom is part of the casting, not a welded-in piece. This ensures it will never break or twist when a rod butt is locked into place.

  • Protective Vinyl Liner: Includes a UV-resistant black vinyl liner that protects your expensive rod handles from scratches and wear.

  • Wide Flange Profile: The top flange is designed to cover the mounting hole completely and distribute the load of the rod across the gunwale.

  • Drainage Hole: Features a pre-drilled drain hole at the bottom to prevent water from pooling inside the tube.

Installation Guidelines

To install the 53671A, you will need a 2-1/4" hole saw. Because of the 15-degree angle, it is crucial to use a mounting template to ensure the hole is elongated correctly to accommodate the tilt of the tube.

Pro-Tip: When mounting in a fiberglass gunwale, always "back-cut" the gelcoat or chamfer the hole edges to prevent spider-cracking when you tighten the mounting screws.


Are you mounting this into a thin-walled gunwale or a solid fiberglass deck?

If your gunwale is on the thinner side, We recommend using a backing plate to prevent the stainless steel from stressing the fiberglass during a heavy hit. 


Trusted by anglers for quality and durability, C.E. Smith rod holders provide dependable performance on the water. The 53671A 15-Degree Flush Mount Rod Holder is a smart upgrade for boaters looking to maximize fishing efficiency without sacrificing deck space or aesthetics.

Best rodholders around!

I have always loved the C.E. Smith rod holders. The thick liner protects the rod butt, the solid polished flange looks great and remains beautiful, doesn’t dull like cheep stamped ones. The heavy duty tube is welded all the way around and is super strong. I’ve never had to replace a Smith rodholder, and Anchor Express offers the best price around with superb communication and customer service.
