i remember a post - that I couldn't find using the search - asking how people stored their rods - now that I've entered the digital age I thought I'd show you mine

its 100mm clear pine with holesaw cut holes and jigsawed 45degree cuts. A eye-screw in the top to hang it on the wall on a hook
Nice tip, we should all take a page out of your book on rod care.

Here are a couple of photos of my rod rack.

CHRIS aka GWH - that is fantastic! Well done!
Mine sit on metal wall hooks horizontally like that but not as classy. I have been thinking about updating the arrangement. You have inspired me to do the same.
Now that yours are up and working, what would you recommend as the spacing between the rods - ie the holes, please?
upright storage is better for the rods if you have the height. They will ultimately warp if there is any uneven pressure on them horizontally.
