Good evening all

Just joined a new syndicate, and a lof of the swims have hard bases, conrete or wood, most Anglers use Pods. I have never used or owned a pod before, dont want to break the bank, and want something light and compact, what do people recomend

I use wychwood cross bars and wychwood slim buzz bars and a couple of stage stands atm and with those I can cover all options with 4 bank sticks
I have a water that can use all set ups depending what swim I fish

Jed sqr pod. Nice and light and quick to set up. you can use it as goal post set up too.

I just bought a jag black super compact mk2 expensive at around £390 but definitely worth it I've had a few different pods and this is so much better than any other I've used before

I would just get some stage stands for your stick and buzz bar set up.

Everyone knows pods are for nods

Think you mean pods are for GODS......... I've got a Fox Stalker+ and it's fine, had it a few years, was about £75. Not sure if they make 'em anymore, but it looks very much like the FOX EOS one, but the Stalker+ has adjustable legs. Fox EOS one is only £55, and if you're on a platform, should be flat so non adjustable legs shouldn't be a problem.

I don't think you will get a bite less using stage stands or pods.

Pods are more versatile as you don't need to screw them down.

Completely agree mate wish I had took the plunch sooner I love mine lol

The only pod worthy is the world wide all else only manage half a job. Most pods from £50 upwards replace a goal post set up at best.

My mk1 fox Quattro is now coming into its 16th year and my old mans is older. Solid and reliable after having a sod pod which blew over if you farted near it.

Strange, I had the complete opposite! Had the Quattro turn over on takes where have never had the Super Sod Pod I bought back in the early 90's ever do that (I use it with the 4" uprights & triposts front & rear when it does get an airing).

Had a few setups in my time,.....but solar p1 pod takes some beating,👍

Also had a quatro get blown over in high wind, trouble with all light weight pods is they need pegging down especially if wind is side on.

How about this --> tidy bit of kit
