Choosing Banksticks

Stainless steel sticks are heavy and very strong, while aluminium and carbon sticks keep the weight down for anglers who move swims often. Longer sticks raise the rod tips, and shorter ones keep the setup low and stable.

A stabiliser fits between a stick and the bank to stop it twisting in soft ground.

Stage Stands for Platforms

A stage stand has a wide base and legs, so it holds a bankstick upright on a wooden platform where a stick cannot be pushed in. Our guide to the best rod pods covers the alternative of a full pod.
