Hi Brian. The spring tension is not adjustable however the secret to adjusting it is in the placement of your hand. There is a good UA-cam video of Traxstech’s owner (Jeff Miller ) demonstrating this exact thing. Search “Traxstech Tutorial Single Lift and Turn “ and you will find it. Hope that helps.
I have a 2023 Qwest E-class 824, due to customization it’s really an 826. The pen side panels go to the top of the top rail. Meaning the top rail only has 3 exposed sides, top, bottom, and outside. I’m not drilling holes so I’m looking for a rod holding system. The rail situation only applies to the stern two fishing positions/seats that are inside the pen. The other two fishing positions/seats are forward of the pen, on the bow deck. This is the only area I’m willing to mount a rod holding system. Any ideas or thoughts are welcome. Thanks and happy fishing!
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately at this time we do not have a mount that will clamp onto the pontoon rails as you have described them. We do have 7 other different mounting options so if you decide you are willing to drill some holes or make modifications to the boat we will be happy to help. Thx
The GTLT-100 is an extremely robust milled aluminum rod holder that can be used for most sport fishing applications. I have personal used it for King salmon and Trolled musky for years with no absolutely no issue. I’m sure that every rod holder has its limitations but this is a very solid and heavy duty rod holder that will not disappoint !

Can the GTLT handle bigger fish, like 20-30lb stripers, albacore, or large ocean Salmon?

Can the RH1 spring be adjusted so it’s not so hard to adjust?
