I made some out of some 1" strap with SS hooks that are pretty hefty. I just made a big loop on the other end so it can go over anything. The real purpose of mine is when I fish with rods out to the sides in those "reliable" things or in my homemade outriggers. I won't accidentally not lose the rod over the side, when I have charter or other beginners on board. So it only has to withstand the pressure of the reel's drag.

The pic shows the hook type. Really strong.
