A Pivoting Rod Holder for securing fishing rods in a variety of positions while they are in use is described. A rod holder tube is a component of a pivoting rod holding system, which has as its additional components a base with a plurality of catch indentations, a collar, a retaining plate, and a plunger-operated locking mechanism at the base of the rod holder tube. A rod placed in the rod holder tube can be locked into any position along a 360 degree axis by simply pulling the rod holder tube up till it is parallel with the catch indentations in the base, spinning it into the desired position, and pulling back firmly on it. This pushes the plunger-operated locking mechanism at the base of the rod holder tube into one of the catch indentations in the base, where it is secured. To release, the rod holder tube is pushed on until the plunger-operated locking mechanism is popped out of the catch indentation in the base. It can then be reset using the same process as above or can be re-stowed by returning it to the vertical position and pushing down.
