How many rods can it hold?
The design is intended to hold multiple rods or poles simultaneously, though the exact number can depend on rod handle thickness.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the rest is screwed in tightly to the bank stick or rod pod. Check that the bank stick itself is firmly planted in the ground.
Rod keeps slipping out.
Verify that the non-slip coating is clean and free of mud or debris. Ensure the rod butt is properly seated in the rest.
Adjustment mechanism is stiff.
Clean the mechanism with a damp cloth. If necessary, apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
