Abstract: A fishing rod holder including a stake, a foot engaging flange, an elongate tubular member, and a rod retainer. The fishing rod holder is designed to be inserted into a substantially planar surface for retaining a fishing rod in a static position. The stake is an elongate member having a pointed tip. The foot engaging flange is attached to the stake at an end distal to the pointed tip. The elongate tubular member is attached in series with the stake and the foot engaging flange. The rod retainer is sized to telescopically couple with the elongate tubular member. The rod retainer is configured to hold a fishing rod. The fishing rod holder effectively holds a fishing rod at a vector defined by the placement of the stake.
