Tripods

The tripod is a support or stand with three legs, providing greater versatility for positioning on certain types of terrain where conventional stakes cannot be driven. They are frequently used in fishing on hard ground, on concrete or stone dams, as well as on sandy beaches at the sea or on the Danube.

Thanks to the adjustable height, tripods allow the rod tip to be maintained in a vertical position, helping to keep the line out of the water, which is desirable when fishing in flowing waters. Tripods are most often equipped at the end with a universal screw-in socket. (A separate category includes tripods used for weighing, which are equipped with a hook for attaching the scale).

Due to their stability, one common application of tripods is to be used as a support solution for rods, reels, or spare kits for competitive anglers. For this purpose, tripods can be fitted with support heads featuring multiple positions, thus allowing efficient organization of equipment.

Tripods are made from lightweight, corrosion-resistant materials such as aluminum or stainless steel. Some models are already equipped with rod support systems or even buz bars. For enthusiasts of the method fishing technique, tripods can be fitted with rollers for handling the sections of the rod during fishing sessions.
