Trakker ACS Pro Bankware – Build Your Own Custom Pod

Choose your options to create a unique pod. – 0% Finance available in the checkout.

Drawing upon over thirty years of bankware expertise, Trakker has launched the ACS Pro Bankware series—a refined, high-performance collection designed for anglers who demand absolute precision, durability, and versatility. Evolving from the iconic 20/20 range, the ACS Pro series introduces a revolutionary modular approach, allowing you to custom-build your ultimate rod pod setup from the ground up. Whether you prefer a tight, minimalist single-stick setup or a rock-solid goalpost rig, this range gives you the freedom to handpick every component to suit your exact angling style and venue requirements.

The build quality of the ACS Pro is second to none. Every primary component features a robust 16mm outer profile machined from high-grade 6082 aluminium, completed with a super-hard, sleek matte black anodised finish for supreme corrosion resistance and stealth. The extendable inner sections are crafted from lightweight yet incredibly strong 13mm carbon fiber, eliminating excess weight without sacrificing rigidity. To ensure your banksticks effortlessly penetrate even the toughest gravel or baked earth, Trakker has equipped them with precision-engineered solid stainless steel digging points.

What truly sets the ACS Pro apart is its intelligent functionality. The range features an interchangeable, quick-change stainless steel capsule system, allowing you to switch bite alarms and rod rests in seconds while guaranteeing a solid, twist-free connection. Paired with anti-loss, tool-free thumbscrews, adjustments are seamless even with cold hands. By combining your choice of banksticks and buzz bars with the comprehensive suite of ACS Pro accessories—including stabilizers, palm savers, snag ears, stage stands, and perfectly aligned hockey sticks—you can conquer any bankside terrain with unwavering reliability.

Where & How to Use

Custom Pod Construction: Use a combination of four banksticks, two adjustable buzz bars, and stabilizers to build an ultra-stable “goalpost” setup. This is perfect for large, windswept pits where rod stability is paramount.
Hard Gravel & Tough Banks: Thread the ACS Pro Palm Saver onto the top of your bankstick. This allows you to comfortably push the solid stainless steel point into stubborn, rock-hard ground without bruising your hands.
Wooden Platforms & Jetties: Utilize the ACS Pro Stage Stands. Screw the stage stands directly into the wooden platform, then drop in your ACS Pro banksticks or buzz bars for a low-profile, impenetrable setup.
Weedy or Snaggy Venues: Integrate the ACS Pro Snag Ears beneath your bite alarms. If a fish takes off at an acute angle or you are fishing locked up near marginal snags, the ears prevent your rod from being violently pulled off the rest.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: How does the quick-change insert system work?

A: The buzz bars and banksticks utilize stainless steel capsules that your bite alarms or butt rests screw into. These capsules then slot directly into the buzz bar or bankstick collar and are secured instantly with the thumbscrew, meaning you don’t have to unscrew your alarms at the end of every session.

Q: Can I use the ACS Pro hockey sticks with indicators from other brands?

A: Yes, the ACS Pro hockey sticks feature standard threads that will accommodate the vast majority of popular bobbins and bite indicators on the market, while offering perfect alignment with the rest of the ACS Pro bankware.

Q: Are the thumb screws entirely removable?

A: No, the thumb screws feature a captive, anti-loss design. This ensures they cannot be accidentally completely unscrewed and lost in the grass or mud during transit or adjustment.

Q: Will the ACS Pro components fit my older Trakker 20/20 bankware?

A: While the ACS Pro is an evolution of the 20/20 range, it features specific 16mm outer profiles, 22mm collars, and the new quick-change insert system. It is best to use ACS Pro components together to guarantee the seamless fit, quick-change capability, and perfect alignment they were designed for.
