Claim:
A movement resistive stand for retaining a plurality fishing rods, said stand comprising: a) a weighted base member; b) a pole connected to said base member and extending vertically therefrom; c) a first and second bar each having at least one rod holder removeably connected thereto; and d) means for connecting each one of said first and second bars to said pole, wherein said weighed base prevents said stand from moving from an initial position thereby allowing said at least one rod holder to retain at least one fishing rod therein, said connecting means being a T-shaped connector, said T-shaped connector comprising: i) a bottom connector having a pair of bottom connector apertures extending through said bottom connector and aligned with one another along a 180 degree plane; and ii) two arm connectors, each respective one of said arm connectors having a pair of arm apertures extending through said arm connector and aligned with one another along a 180 degree plane; e) a base connector positioned at substantially a center of a top side of said weighted base, said base connector having a pair of base apertures extending through said base connector and aligned with each other in a 180 degree plane; f) a pin and fastener for fastening said pin, wherein said pole further comprises: i) a first pair of pole apertures positioned a predetermined distance from a first distal end of said pole, said first pair of pole apertures extend though said pole and are aligned with one another in a 180 degree plane; and ii) a second pair of pole apertures positioned a predetermined distance from a second distal end of said pole opposite said first distal end, said second pair of pole apertures extend though said pole and are aligned with one another in a 180 degree plane, and said first distal end is received by said base connector, said base apertures are aligned with said first pair of pole apertures whereby said pin is inserted through a first one said base apertures on a first side of said pole and extends through said first pair of pole apertures and further though a second one of said base apertures and exits said pole at a second side of thereof wherein said pin is fastened by said fastener and removeably connects said pole to said weighted base, wherein said first and second bar have a plurality of pairs of bar apertures extending therethrough, wherein each respective pair of bar apertures are aligned along a 180 degree plane, said pairs of bar apertures are positioned equidistant from one another and said first bar is received within a first arm connector and said arm apertures are aligned with a first pair of said bar apertures whereby said pin is received through said arm apertures and said first pair of said bar apertures and is fastened by said fastener thereby securing said bar to said arm.
