A fishing rod holder suitable for operation by the sportsmen's foot including a base to which a foot pedal is pivotally attached and a vertical support member affixed. The fishing rod holder has a fishing rod receiving member which is pivotally attached to a foot pedal and the support member. The weight of the fishing rod when mounted in the rod holder maintains the holder and rod in an essentially horizontal position. Pressure on the foot pedal counterbalance the weight of the fishing rod causing upward movement. Rapid depression of the foot pedal will set the fish hook. In the preferred embodiment, the fishing rod holder has spikes attached to the lower side of the base to firmly position the device and a set screw located on the fishing rod receiving member to securely attach the fishing rod to the device.
