A support for a fishing rod includes an abutment plate, a mounting device for mounting the abutment plate on the body of a fisher-person, a support base mounted on the abutment plate, and a support tube formed of a coil spring with a flexibility and secured to the support base at an inclined attitude with its tip end directed upwards. The support tube is formed, so that a base end portion of the fishing rod fitted in the support tube is rotatably supported on an inner peripheral surface of the support tube, and the fishing rod can be swung vertically and laterally by the flexing of the support tube. A widened portion is formed at the tip end of the support tube for supporting an annular shoulder portion connected to an upper end of the base end portion of the fishing rod, whereby a flexible portion in which the fishing rod is not fitted, is left. Thus, the fisher-person can support the fishing rod easily and stably at a usual upward angle using one hand only by fitting the base end portion of the fishing rod into the support tube with the abutment plate put into abutment against the body of the fisher-person. In addition, the fisher-person can guide the fishing rod to an inner peripheral surface of the fishing rod to freely rotate the fishing rod and moreover, can freely and stably swing the fishing rod vertically and laterally by only one hand, while suitably flexing the support tube formed of the coil spring.
