Bought a Fox EOS Tripod after trying one in store

Would highly recommend this for anyone not looking to stood/bend for your rods.

The versatility and multiple adjustments it has covers all types of scenarios.

Tips up
Tips down
High up
Low down
Almost vertical for river fishing.

Comes with both 2 and 3 rod buzz bars....and at £84 with a decent carry case which allows for alarms to stay attached..... can't complain.

Thanks for everyone's suggestions 👍

Solar Universal Euro pod has to be the biggest most versatile pod going. Expensive but epic bit of kit. Would cover all your needs and much much more

That's some pod, a thing of beauty for me to lust after, it's brightened up my day First thoughts were weight, at 4.4kg without bars, but who cares given I use a barrow nowadays. It's there, it's in my mind...noooo...godammit...you just had to, didn't you

you bugger
If I did 'she' would probably beat me to death with it, dig the hole for me with it, and then sell it on 'as new, one former owner'

Lol I bought one for my 13 footers as they were bit big for my RP1. Figured keep the RP1 for the 10 footers. Reality is use this pod now exclusively with the RP1 sitting on the shelf collecting dust. Works as well with 10 footers as with 13 footers and covers every scenario possible.

Its big, heavy and with all the different setup options take bit of time to setup compared to RP1 but its a great bit of kit IMO

Thanks for the feedback, it is a lovely bit of kit. Quite surprised they didn't make the legs QR and foldable to the main chassis. Until I bought my Defiant MPS Panther I'd only ever used Solar pods, 2 Sods and 2 Worldwides (2 because I used to fish 6 rods in France). The same problem applies to the Euro as it does to the SP and WW, if you want to fish a rod to one side of the swim you need to take 2 extra bank sticks anyway, adding to the weight again, and the main reason I bought my Panther. In the big scheme of things it matters not now I use a barrow I suppose, and if I were to sell my Panther & mint WW with stubby legs and other bank sticks I'd be well on the way there!
Are you sure?
