The quality of the jag I have/had is in a different league to solar I had before

Used it for years never had a complaint. Fannied around with cheap stage stands for years the jag ones with the built in driver, the fit of the driver in the stand so its central to the screw is top drawer presicion stuff

I use my 2+1 bars on single sticks, as goal posts or on my compact pod, depending on the situations. I’ve not managed to scratch my sticks yet. I sold my sod pod with triposts etc as I wasn’t using it since changing to jag black. There was a noticeable weight saving.
I really like the micro pod, if I didn’t already have a compact pod I’d definitely go for one. It’s quality and very versatile. I just can’t justify having two pods!! But of the two the micro covers more situations

I have never ever seen any jag gear in the flesh...
So am I right I could cover all my bases with this micro pod?..
Four pro lite bank sticks, plus the two plus one bars=literally two plus one,which is my preferred style...
Or using the adapter I could turn the two rod bars into a three rod on the pod,or two bankstick set up,yeah...?
Is jag any good,and does it scratch easy, and how light is it compared to a sod pod..?

I have one of Keith's digging sticks, brilliant but of kit I now wouldn't be without, also makes a rock solid snag bar if your fishing up a margin 👍

Pretty sure Keith has made digging sticks for years and does a Ti one for about a score.

Actually yeah I think you might be right on that. I was thinking it was only the longer length ones.

The camera stick isn’t going to be for everyone, but check out the digging stick. It really is a great little bit of kit. Very light. Takes up no room and because of the excavator head it chews into anything. You simply wind it into rock hard ground or gravel, then wind it back out. Leaves a perfect hole for a bankstick. It’s one of those products that you didn’t realise you need, but once you try one you’ll be sold. Especially for people who are worried about marking black blank sticks or people who use cheaper banksticks or carbon and don’t want to risk bending them. And at less than £20 it’s a jag product even braders can’t bitch about. :-)
What I would say is that I reckon as simple a product as this is it’s gonna be a huge seller wilth all the guys who fish gravel pits. So if you do want one then get your tackle shop to order you one in now as I reckon they are gonna sell out very quickly.
