Free standing rod / reel rack


After I sold my places in POC, my rods/reels have just been standing in a corner of my shop. In POC I had several wall mounted racks.

I’m looking for decent free standing racks with or without wheels. Nothing wall mounted.

I really don’t want to build anything myself right now. Unless it’s super simple.

So any suggestions or ones you have actual first hand experience with. I don’t mind if I have to buy a couple. Between all the family rods and reals, there’s probably at least 30 out there.

Thanks

What I use is a 5 gallon bucket.
I cut enough pieces of pvc pipe (all equal length) to fill the bucket. For me, all the pieces of pipe are about 10 in in length. So there's plenty of space for the reel to sit down in the bucket where it is protected/covered up. When done placing the pipe in the bottom of the bucket, it looks like a honey comb at the bottom.
You can stick the butt end of the rod down into the pipe and the rod will stay upright.

Depending on the size of your reels, type or reel, rods only, etc., will depend on how many rods you get into a bucket.
It also helps me to keep my live bait rods separated from my lure rods separated from my catfish rods, separated from my spinning rods, etc.
