I have an original solar sod pod and love it, packs down and fits in my buzz bar bag. It's one if them items of tackle I saw the grown ups with when I was a kid, but could not afford one then. It's just so well made and I think kind of retro. I did always use bank sticks but putting a pod into position is just so much quieter and less hassle then getting sticks in the ground, so find I use it all the time now. Picked mine up for about £50.

Have had a look at solar not a fan of stainless steel - prefer black if I'm honest. Budget is 100ish but understand buy ***** buy twice

Depends what style of pod you like.I have a pod the wychwood tactical pod was copied from,I don't like buzzbars I prefer being able to adjust the height of my rods individually.If I was looking at the fox range then the quattro always seems to get good reviews

I have the Wychwood slim one, got it last year seems very good, use as singles or goalpost etc then if you need a pod just stick the cross braces on 👍🏻

Why companies are copying Keith's Trident design now & treating it as a radical new design is beyond me? I had one of the original Tridents back in the mid-early 00's with the open clamp design to hold the banksticks & was one of the best pods I ever had (still kept the Sod Pod for when needed to hike a distance as the Trident was not light at all).

So many copies of it from Century, Custom Angling Solutions, Wychwood, etc. Blatantly ripping Keith's design off. (Off soapbox now)

There are a couple of x pods on eBay now well under your budget. I haven't used mine for a while, but it must be 15+ years old and still strong as ever.
Are you sure?

Yes, continue
