Rod Racks

[MN BassFisher]

What do my fellow bassheads use for storing their rods? I currently have an Okuma rod stand/rack in my garage but wouldn't ya know it...I've got too many rods for it to hold. I need to upgrade so I wanted to see what others had for storage systems. I'm eyeing up the Kastking Rack.

I have (2) 2 X 4 on the garage ceiling with bike hooks on them, mounted about 5' apart, I'll post a picture when I get home.

I had a rack but ran into the same issue... So I have a big pile of rods leaned up in the corner of my basement...

Assuming the pictures work.. 

For most of my rods I just buy the cheap Berkeley horizontal rod racks and line 'em up on the wall. Rod butts rest on the ground but this is in my office inside so who cares. 

For rods over 7'8" I made some racks with 1x3s and 1" dowels that attach to the floor joists. I can cram a bunch of rods up there. Have a couple of them in the ceiling in my office.

I also use the ones like RK, but I also put the bottom one on. I just have them in the Garage. I do need to lower the bottom bracket as right now my 7' 6" rod doesn't fit.

That cost me some grief from the Wife as she saw that one sitting in there crooked and busted me on getting a new pole!  I swear she stares at that rod rack everyday she gets home to see if something has been added!!
