Storing rods

[Mr Fish]

No it's not too many rods,it not enough racks.!!!

And not enough wall space left to put racks on

 

[flappy]

I just put each rod in a length of drain pipe.. just pick them up and chuck them in the car

 

[concrete]

My rods could be anywhere.

On the stairs, on the landing, in the lounge or in the garage. They’re usually somewhere.

Laddre bracket's would do a good job, cheap as chips in Aldi's

 

[flappy]

Smack some 9 inch nails in the wall..

Reading from your right - Orvis Superfine fly rod and light wading stick (about to be put away now the trout season is just about finished), light pike rod, Penn medium spinning rod, Sonik medium spinner, Diawa 15' salmon fly, Sonik beach caster, assorted cane fly rods. These are in my home office. There's more in the attic . The guitar is a Strat copy assembled from bits obtained from ebay at various times over a year or so. It plays a damn sight better than me.

I wish I had not seen this thread .


We recently moved house, and for the last 30 years SWMBO just accepted that there were a few rods around the house .

Now she knows .

I complained about her having 3 cameras, now I just keep quiet for a quiet life.There are a few travel rods, with reels and end gear in the back of the van as well, in case I see a fishing opportunity when out and about .
You never know.

You don’t perhaps think that you might have been a little bit obsessive..??…

Some rod bags used to have a loop so could be hung from but guess depends on many things and value/ type of rod.

No , its a lifelong interest. I dont go to pubs, dont go to football, dont smoke, etc etc.

I should add that I have a regular table at a couple of vintage tackle fairs, so some of what you see there are sale items.

Its just lucky that nobody asked about reels or tackle bags/boxes/ baskets , fishing clothing ,waders, boots, brollies,angling books and other paraphenalia.

What you see above is actually a small part of my collection.

Chat with mate here and he got old mate who is into old rods and reels.

Reckons he's got stuff worth loads and rare stuff, his place is rammed with it.

In an alcove/corner in my ‘den’, which was originally an integral garage since made into an extra room.
