At the bottom was a 2x4 bracketed horizontally to the wall, with circular "divots" drilled into it (~1.5" across). A few feet up a 2x4 was screwed into the wall, with 2" sections of garden hose screwed into it. Cut slits in the front of the hose, and you slip the fishing rod in. Cheap and easy!

They are called "Rod Racks" and come in all shapes and sizes. Another storage solution which I have migrated from my fishing to many other uses in the house are tackle utility boxes from Plano or similar types. They are made of sturdy plastic and come in different sizes. The kids love them for things from Lego to Polly Pockets.
