Looking for a 3 rod pod, sick of having wonky rods using bank sticks. Any recommendations? Specifically black and around £100. The avid one looks decent 🤔

Wonky rods catch way more carp IMO.

Buy some adjustable bank sticks?

I've not tired the avid pod, but to be honest, ive never found any of their products to be great

Ive had a few pods (including summit and JAG) but have always gone back to my 20 year old fox xpod plus. Mega mega old bit of kit

If you want a really cheap decent pod, the Fox EOS one is only about £50. The only issue with it I think is it doesn't have adjustable legs. My son and I have the Fox Stalker pod, which is the same as the EOS but with adjustable legs. These are about £90 now, and we've had them quite a few years with no issues.

Alternatively, look for a second hand one, you may be lucky and drop on a decent-ish stainless one within your budget.

What I like about Quest tackle is that it is so low

No good if you've got a bad back, you have to bend down further.

That said, just looked at them and they don't look too bad. I really like the pod with 2 x 3 vertical banksticks for your alarms, butt rests. Even the bivvies look good. Haven't really come across Quest before, but their stuff looks OK.

The Wychwood pod looks the business to me.

That solar one looks remarkably like my old fox Quattro pod which is still going strong

The solar one also looks a lot like the Vader X one from sonik.

Just got a Saber low pro pod - Really impressed with it for the price.

Bit heavy but packs away compact and easy to set up
