Croch Aluminium Carp Fishing Specialist Goal Post Style Rod Pod Fishing

That is a good item and I love this item. I would purchase again if I needed to with no hesitation.

The media could not be loaded. This is my first rod pod I’ve ever had good quality shipping was on time simple to set up good shape not damaged but the instructions for the bite alarms was in German if anyone knows where I can find one in English that be great

I was definitely outperform thefenceonthis product. I had bought it and used it twice. Recently I needed to fish over a chest high railing with a fence. I was perplexed as to how to accomplish this. Then the light bulb shined. This is a goal post system. All the legs are the same. I took the expandable rods and put them in the front goal post position that holds the alarms. I put the short legs in the rear position and another short legs in the rear holding the goal post. Wow, what a game changer. Ive come up with five solid configurations for virtually any fishing scenario. This has now my go to pod! Switch the legs around until you find a configuration that suits your purpose. I recommend end this product...

[Update at the bottom] Shopped around online extensively for a reasonably priced rod pod. The few US-based carp stores have quality rod pods but they're extremely pricey, and the affordable ones in this price range are usually terrible products. This one was a gamble since I don't know the name but so far I'm glad I took the plunge. It's very light-weight and surprisingly sturdy despite the light frame, though I feel like it wouldn't stand up to major abuse (but then it was only $80, which is cheap for these things). Length is adjustable, as are each of the four legs and the two "goal posts". The latter are only maybe 10" long so not much leeway there, and the legs extend diagonally so the height gain is not huge with those. But that all said, you can still get pretty good elevation if you need it. It came with three butt rests and three rod rests, as pictured, and the carry bag is surprisingly well-made and spacious (can fit other stuff in there too!) Haven't used the pod yet but I don't foresee any showstoppers with it. Will update after some use, but for now I'm very happy with it.UPDATE: 2-years later it's still doing great! Couple of rust spots but nothing of significance. I do wish it was taller - I'd like to be able to get the rod tips up really high for a local tidal river, so I often prop the front end up on a log for extra elevation. I will reiterate that it doesn't look like it would stand much abuse. I keep it stored indoors, in its case, and it has remained in great condition. If you're the kind of person that's hard on their stuff (you know who you are!), this might disappoint, but sturdy alternatives are 3x the price of this. I'm sure I'll get at least another couple of years out of this, barring clumsiness on my part.

Love his new rod stand much better than the last one I had. Much stronger than the cheap ones but did not break the bank. I’d recommend to anybody getting into carp fishing over the cheap 30 and $40 ones spend a little more and get a little more.

Alarms work great so far and it holds rods as should. However, as soon as I put it together the one leg stripped and broke. 100% satisfactory and standing behind product is not true.

My husband already had 1 but every time he checked it was out of stock, was able to snag this up and came in time for Christmas. Now we have 2 since we both have 2 pole permits.

Considering the price this is a pretty good rod pod. It can be set up and taken down quickly, and it holds 3 rods fairly securely. One of the legs for the rod holder part on mine had incorrectly sized threads, so instead of screwing on that leg just kindof slides over the threads into place, but it isn't really a big deal. There are no bite alarms included, so I think that the people saying the bite alarms don't work are either confused or they ordered a different product. I've been using mine for carp fishing, I set my lines out with my reels in free-spool, and the bait clicker on, so I haven't had problems with the rods coming loose. I have used it twice for catfishing, where I leave my reel engaged, I had one fish that I couldn't land that was able to drag the whole rod pod about two feet before I got to the pole. Other than that I've caught catfish up to about 12 lbs, and they were not able to drag the pod, or pull the rods off of it. Compared to around $300 for a similar rod pod from Fox, or Korda this is a pretty good deal.
