Hi, I usually use bank sticks, but the lake I want to fish has very hard ground, so am looking for a reasonably priced rod pod, no more than £100ish, any ideas/suggestions? Thanks🎣

. . 2nd hand quattro . . .I have several!
Saying that I'm currently tarting it with a Solar A1 GT . . .has the small 6" legs and I've added a small bungee to the rear screw so I can peg it down - actually quite like it, lightweight and low profile . . .buzz bars are close but not silly close and the splay on the front is perfect . . .

Take a look at Chris Brown Products and his rod pod. Top draw piece of kit that'll last you a lifetime and won't fall apart. The only thing is it's £28.50 more than you want to spend. I've got a fancy/mega expensive JAG pod with all the trimmings, the Chris Brown one blows the JAG out of the water.

There's a chap on our lake who has the wychwood one. It's £100 and is just like the century one 👍🏾

The Sonik is pretty decent for a budget priced pod.
And can also be used as a standalone Goalpost Bank stick set up too.

I have the New direction p7 I am very happy with it, you do not have to buy the full set at once on Amazon, you will find all parts separately, you can start with the banksticks, 1 or 2 central bars and 2 horizontal bars
Also their after service is very good
There was a factory fault on one of the horizon bar the bankstick hole was wrong so the screw does not secure the bankstick.
After contacting ND on Fb I received a mail later that day that a new horizon bar was on the way, 2 days later the Horizon bar was delivered

I've never seen the New Direction gear in the flesh and not spoken to anyone who owns one. Any one on here that has any of their pods to give an honest review?
Edit just seen Zinnos post

I have 4 carbon banksticks, been really good apart from the glue that holds the pole cap on came loose, I've used epoxy to put it back on and no further issues.
Their magnetic banksticks are a waste of time, they need a lot of vertical force to pull off and not alot of horizontal, ok if you're fishing open water I guess.

Thanks everyone, some good suggestions for me to look at.

Photo of mine, i like low ground pod setup, I use it as a 2 rod setup with 2 Prologic avenger banksticks in the middle, the intention is to set it up with a Smart alarm and Smart light in the middle that I will buy soon.
Toronto_carp, For rod lockers i use: Pb products bungee's (£5,19)
