[quote Stickleback]I am interested in any suggestions on this thread. But now I am more curious what the difference is between a pole and rod. Does rod only apply to the fly version or have a minimum length. If I can use the correct nomenclature my friends won’t look and me crossed eyed when I ask them to hand me “that long flexible thing with eyelets that have the string throug it.”[/quote]
[#0000FF]As a kid in Idaho, I grew up fishin' "cricks". I used a "pole". Later in life I graduated to fishing creeks, with a rod.
There have been pertinent questions raised...about length of rods...one piece or two...reels attached, etc. Do you have a picture and/or measurements of the area you have to work with? I can possibly offer some suggestions or designs for PVC goodies. But in the back of my SUV I just string a bungee cord across between the two hanger hooks and slide the rod tips up over the bungee. Holds in place and never gets in the way.
