Put it this way. Im in the permit stage for a new shed. I recently brought home a frame home from work to use as a rod storage cupboard for the shed.

few mods with the angle grinder and built out with melamine and I'll have lockable storage for a serious amount of gear inside the shed.

Oh jeez.

I'd count but I only have a limited time in a normal week, I'd have to clear my entire schedule :victory:

The stuff I use regularaly:
Landbased
2 heavy surf rods with either small Penn Squalls, a Fin Nor Lethal LTC30 or a Squall 60LD
1 med surf rod with a Daiwa Windcast
1 light surf rod with an Okuma Saion

Fresh water
1 trout rod with a Shimano Symetre

Kayak
2 general purpose 2-4kg rods with Penn Slammers
1 micro jigging rod with a Penn Slammer
3 gummy rods, 2 with Penn Slammers, 1 with an old school Shakespear overhead
1 stickbait rod with a Quantum Cabo
2 game rods with Penn Slammers

I've got a couple of Kmart surf rods in the shed in case one of my mates without fishing gear wants to soak baits on the beach, I've also got a box of sundry reels that I might get around to using at some stage if the main ones I use break.

I want to add an egi rod to that, probably to share a reel with the micro jigging rod.

lots, a handful of useful gear and the rest collectables over 40 years. no real value in the wall hangings, just like to admire them. I'm hope my son appreciates them one day!
