And it doesn’t cost much. We have two excellent options that work brilliantly to not just get your tackle away from the mud or up off the wharf but also, increase your chance of a strike. Firstly, our collapsible rod pod:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"The collapsible rod pod set up on the bank \" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1940\/1341\/files\/rod_pod_set_up_on_bank_of_dam_large.jpg?v=1543287056\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a free standing rod bracket holding up to 3 rods and reels.

The rod pod is supplied with three bite alarms, each with a buzzer adjustable for tone and volume, and flashing LED lights. Batteries are included. The buzzer sounds and the light flashes when your line moves over the roller. This means even the slightest pick up of your bait will be detected.
