I like the idea of using the same type of "piping" that goes into a person's golf bag to keep the clubs seperated.

No tubes, rod socks for me. Tubes are to much of a PITA for me especially with the 7' rods. Some guys don't like removing or installing the socks, but it works for me. I can keep 20+ rods in my locker with no problem, can't do the same with tubes in my boat. No tangles, no "caught" rod guides installing or removing rod from tube. BPS has some OK ones. Stors-It makes some really good ones, but they aren't cheap.

Tubes
The golf bag tube work well. They are vey inexpensive and easy to cut if you need to. I used them in a Procraft I used to have. I got some 4 - 5 inch thick foam and cut it (oversized) to fit the locker towards the end of it. Cut slots in the foam and push the tubes into the slots. Hope this makes sense.

They really need to make a one size rod case that can hold rods up to 7'6". Although I have seen some carry totes that hold the rods, they rarely are made for rods and reels.
I purchased a Frabill combo carrier and hated it because when it was folded, the rods laid on top of each other. I ended up returning the thing and bought some new lures. |

Cheap rod holder HELP!!
Guys, A few of you have mentioned offered up the link for the cheap rod organizer as described on BBC. Problem is, this link now leads to NOTHING! I remember seeing this a few months ago, but I had no use for it til now. I just bought a ProCraft Super Pro 210 and I want to get it rigged the way I want it before I start putting gear back in--it'd be easier this way.
