Ive a trakker v2 and after getting some of the trakker storm poles. My question is what size would people get? Ibuse the solid and mozzy fronts so need to get the right size ones so i can still use these.

Cheers for the help

I've just put together a Nash double spod station and I was on the lookout for some storm poles so I picked these NGT poles up 97cm extendable to 178cm - made in India.

4 cost me £37 delivered.

The quality is much better than I expected, note these have augured points for difficult ground. I'm well impressed by them, personally I'd forget shelling out on the Trakker ones and save yourself a few bob, these are fantastic!

. . .would still say on paper (and the fact that mine have lasted for eons) the fox euro banksticks (cam lock storm pole) with prologic quick release adaptors are strong, light and generally bullet proof - go for either 36" or 48" depending on your bivvy etc.

To be fair though I have also recently purchased the NGT Power bore storm poles in 38" for barbel fishing rod rests and they are great for the money and also pretty lightweight. Time will tell as to how long the cams will last and the colour is a carbon grey rather than black but all told I'm pretty impressed with them . . .they do have a projecting little bar at the threaded end which could prove annoying for bivvy use . . .suppose you could cut them off / remove them with pliers etc . .
