This week, we check out the top five rod pods for carp fishing.
In a world where using banksticks and buzz bars are the most fashionable and reliable way to present your rods on the bank, ready for a bite, there maybe be times when this type of setup is not that effective.
When your fishing somewhere where there is uneven ground, gravel or wooden platform swims, using a rod pod can save the day.
