    I also place my toilet tent and shower tent there too. Bloody handy spot.

    grab some 4" pvc cap one end and glue a screw cap to the other, voila instant rod holder,
    you can even make them lockable. Use long hose clamps or very big cable ties to hold in place.
    safe dustproof, can fit heaps of rods
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

    Not really keen on bullbar mounts for long distances and I don't really want the reels and rod coping that much sand and weather damage on the front of the car 24/7 for over a month.

    Roof rack? Arb basket mounted on gutter. As said above jack on one side and awning on the other.

    No room inside the car
    No room inside the camper because of no storage.
    Don't "WANT" the PVC pipe option to be the only one because i want to save time rigging the rods every time it want to use them

    6"5 flick rod

    I like that Thule castaway box but not sure on the practicality of it with the basket on the roof and taking up precious basket room although I'm sure I'd fit stuff under the rods.

    Is it possible to mount anything on top of your camper? then you could just remove them before setting up the camper.
