I guess I'll jump in on this one. Here's a photo of phase 1 of what I put together with some scrap lumber, a hole saw and a jig saw. Phase 1, because it started out as a single level rack. Once I filled it, I realized that I had another 14 rods needing a home, so I put a second level above this one that extends out past the vertical supports, giving me 14 more slots. I'll take a picture and add to this later, but here is phase 1:
Only 3 are my crappie rods, the rest are for trout & salmon (trolling and river), Walleye (jigging, trolling, and bottom bouncer), catfish, Surf, a couple bait casters and a GP spinning combo, and wife and son's spinning outfits... and a fly rod.
All told, the phase 2 rack has 26 rod/reel combos, and 4 rods without reels resting on top of the whole thing.

Here's what I came up with for storage in my garage.

As others have said, very similar to what I use to a lesser degree. I thought I was overdoing things with 32+ in mine, but now need to expand. Addictions are expensive. Never damaged a rod since I went overhead.

Here is another way to gain some storage. I used U-bolts and J-bolts sized to the rods. I dipped them in the plasticote like you use to insulate plier handles to protect the rods from rubbing as the door goes up and down. I had to had a small 3rd hook for the 10 and 12 ft. rods to keep them from jiggling too much.
Since this picture was made, I've added a 3rd section of 4 rods. This works really well and is cheap too. I also have racks on the side wall.
Only problem is, if I fuss about the wife buying another pair of shoes or a purse she points to the wall and door.

I like the horizontal wall rack.
Was searching around Bass Pros website over lunch and saw a telescoping jigging pole that looked nice. Not a bad price either. Might have a new addition for my rack soon
