Everyone has different needs and stopping a real thief from taking your reel or rod will be difficult. If you really want to deter a thief I think you should keep the rod IN the vehicle.
That said I had a home made one, a commercial one but for the last 10 years use the double ski rack from Thule. IMO this works great, it is lockable but it is not going to really stop someone who wants your reel. You can put 5 or 6 rods in there and keep the reels well off the roof with spaces they provide. Also they don't scar the reel or rod. I have seen "rod racks" which try to keep the reel upright, scratch the reel stem.
