Protective rod cases

Evening chaps,

I'll be upgrading my rods to Freespirits next month(lucky me). I'm currently using a Korum three rod quiver for my current rods, which obviously doesnt offer 100% protection.

So, what the best rod holdall that offers full protection? It would need to also house rod rest, landing net handles, and a brolly on wet days, as well as a couple of made up rods complete with 6000 size reels.

Five rods John? Why do you want to carry that many out of interest?

If it's the original one, like the one I've had for about 12 years imo it was the best one that they don't make anymore, I think there's been a few versions and the latest one isn't total hardwall construction.You can still pick up the originals secondhand.
 
I still use my korum quiver for my rods. Trying to make my tackle lighter for the walks
 
I use a couple of Cypry single rod sleeves for made up rods,they fully enclose a single rod with reel mounted , they strap to the side of my quiver, and the rest, brolly, river tripod, net handle and bits just slide in the quiver.
TBH I have had my gear for many years, and it works so well that I have had no reason to change it.
I am not even sure that the Cypry are available any more .

Avid, JRC,Nash etc etc all do similar items.

I recently bought the 2 rod korum 2 rod total protection and its got hard tubes built in giving super protection my Korum river pod, landing net, banksticks etc all go in its brilliant highly recommended


((they only discontinued the 3 rod version ))
