Ohioguy25 Posted October 2, 2016 Posted October 2, 2016 I want something that will make transporting and carrying my 6 ft 2 piece St Croix spinning rod when fishing from a kayak. I want to both protect the rod and reel as well as consolidate it and make it easy to carry. I would like it to be as small as possible and to be able to leave the reel attached. Thanks! Quote
Ohioguy25 Posted October 3, 2016 Author Posted October 3, 2016 Does anyone know if this case will work well with a 2 piece 6 ft spinning rod?https://www.amazon.com/Sage-Ballistic-Reel-Case-Double/dp/B00ED2N7D8 Quote
Super User Felix77 Posted October 3, 2016 Super User Posted October 3, 2016 I think that is for a fly fishing outfit. You will have a hard time finding one which will allow you to keep the spinning reel on. FWIW I use a Plano fishing rod tube and carrry the reel in my bag. http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=22416966&camp=CSE:GooglePLA:22416966:16269396-DSG:TACKLE_FISHING-ACCESSORIES_FISHING-ACCESSORIES&gclid=Cj0KEQjwg8i_BRCT9dHt5ZSGi90BEiQAItdjpK_gfnRrw4jfpE3Rre0LDqQtLhuJmGUBiQ5DQ6blqakaAjAk8P8HAQ Quote

How about this one? It looks like it allows you to leave the reel attached. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Cabelas-Travel-Rod-Case/1618368.uts?productVariantId=3522479&WT.tsrc=PPC&WT.mc_id=GoogleProductAds&WT.z_mc_id1=03702326&rid=20&gclid=Cj0KEQjw4MK_BRC1n6KTtezikbIBEiQA872hYZLBQ_0v3Gppqk-B46KMqeU1B4z-0bKacJqYX2MzXCYaAtHk8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds 1 Quote
Hulkster Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 the ones St. Croix makes are bullet proof, hard PVC with padded zippered endcaps. http://stcroixrods.com/uploads/icons/STC-Rod-Builder-Rod-Cases-2016.pdf looks like the RC39 is what you are after. I used to have one of these for a 6'6 one piece rod and it was great being almost indestructible though, they are heavy. but your rod will be undamaged. Quote

Onvacation Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 I use this one. http://t.basspro.com/White-River-Spinning-Rod-and-Reel-Case/product/10205722/ i fit a 6'10" two,piece in it. The largest guide is tight, but it holds the rod stable. I only have to loosen the reel handle. It has been stepped on and has held up well. Quote
Ohioguy25 Posted October 4, 2016 Author Posted October 4, 2016 Cool, thanks everyone. Can't wait to get on the water Sunday, the rain killed it this weekend. Quote

Onvacation Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 It's a good case. And, it's inexpensive which is my favorite part. Quote
