Used a pod since mid 80s my 4 rod sits on single bank sticks. If u was using 4 rods regularly I'd have two pods.

I've heard that people do this. I've thought about the idea of using two pods, it's just too much money, especially so as there's quite a few occasions where I've had my rods in up to waste height in water, two pods would work out pricey if in that situation you'd use JAG sticks, instead, a 4 rod buzz bar does the job for me and cuts down on having two pods doing the same thing. Each to their own though 👍

I fish single sticks, and if needed they will be locked up. What's the problem? More solid than a chunk of aluminium resting on the ground with all your other rods ready to go in with it.

We mean a single stick with a buzz bar on top, which naturally twists or undoes itself with pressure from a rod on either side.
Single sticks for each rod or a goalpost set up is infinitely better for stability

Surely that would only happen if fishing locked up. How many people would use an unsecured pod in that situation?

You would be surprised,saw a bloke have his entire pod took in.He was fishing with fairly loose drag but his reel jammed on the take and the lot went in.I always secure mine down,it's not worth the risk

Yeah so £500 with a set of the lockdown butt grips... as i thought.

Still very nice and for my fishing currently its perfect for what i need.

I'm gonna have to chew the ear off em at the northern angling show long enough for them to give me a big enough discount to leave them alone

Yeh, looks a nice pod with a price tag to match although im sure it will be well made, I think I will stick to my Xcavators and stage stands for now.

Well Jag said we would be pleasantly surprised,I thought they meant it would be reasonably priced.I guess 6x£20ish sticks is 120ish so the base is only £300 or so
Are you sure?
