Disclosed herein is a multi-functional apparatus for use during fishing, boating, camping, etc. that typically comprises a flat horizontal surface, two hinged support panels attached to the underside of the horizontal surface, three adjustable-length attachment straps, and one or more rod support tubes. The multi-functional apparatus of the present invention provides means for detachable attachment to any vertical member such as a pier piling, a bridge structure, or a tree trunk. The present invention is fabricated of strong, lightweight, plastic materials to provide the durability required by the nature of its usage. The present invention's design is simple, scalable, and can be economically manufactured and sold. In use, the present invention is attached to a vertical member conveniently located at the fishing site. Once baited and cast, one or more fishing rods may be supported in an upright orientation, awaiting a strike by a fish, by placing the handle(s) into the support tube(s). While the fishing process continues uninterrupted, any fish that have been caught may be cleaned/filleted on the integral, horizontal work surface. The present invention may also be used to hold one or more fishing rods in an upright position so that they may be cleaned. During the cleaning process, the horizontal surface may be used to hold items such as cleaning rags or soap in a convenient location.
